About the project

Encodes US federal individual income tax forms and instructions as cited, machine-checkable YAML data, with a guided self-preparation interview that computes forms and explains every value locally.

Useful for
  • Encode a tax form line as a cited YAML record and verify it against archived IRS pages
  • Run the guided interview to determine which forms apply and compute a values sheet
  • Check the build for dangling references, cycles, or unit mismatches in the tax data

4.2 Early signal Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 29, 2026, 20:51 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

03060October 23, 2026October 29, 2026

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-29 (UTC), 19:54–20:39: 66 → 73 stars (+7). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +9 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • The repository is 6 days old and already has 73 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
  • Hacker News: “Show HN: A proof-of-concept formalization of the IRS federal tax forms” — 25 points, 1 day ago.
  • Recent forks include notable developers: @millette (310 followers).

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
