# dbt-labs/dbt > dbt is a data transformation tool: analysts and engineers write SQL models and dbt turns them into tables and views in the warehouse. The main branch holds the Rust rewrite v2.0 with faster parsing and compilation. - Magnitude: 1.4 out of 10 — Steady - Stars: 13,940 total · +1 star on 2026-09-28 (UTC), ≈ 3 by evening - Star trust: star growth looks organic - Category: Data & analytics · Language: Rust · License: Apache-2.0 · Created: 2016-03-10 · Last push: 2026-09-28 - GitHub: https://github.com/dbt-labs/dbt · Homepage: https://getdbt.com · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/dbt-labs/dbt ## Useful for - Build SQL models into tables and views inside a data warehouse - Test transformation quality with built-in model tests - Run dbt as a single binary without a Python runtime ## Why it’s here - 1 star so far today, about 3 expected by the end of the day. - Recent forks include notable developers: @tamird (284 followers). ## Star trust Star growth looks organic. Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer. ## Numbers - Forks: 2,596 - Issues and pull requests: 15,718 - Watchers: 163 - Average over the last week: 7 per day - Usual pace: 9 per day - Latest release: v2.0.0-dev.41-test-pypi (2026-09-23) ## Stars per day, last 30 days (oldest → newest, today is partial) 2026-10-04 … 2026-11-02: None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None, None ## Magnitude by day, last 13 days 09-16 3.1, 09-17 4.9, 09-18 1.9, 09-19 1.8, 09-20 1.6, 09-21 1.5, 09-22 1.7, 09-23 1.7, 09-24 1.5, 09-25 1.7, 09-26 1.7, 09-27 1.4, 09-28 1.5 --- Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score. Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast. Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
