# graphene-data/graphene

> Graphene is an everything-as-code analytics framework for SQL-based data exploration, visualization, and reporting, designed to be driven by coding agents. It provides a semantic layer (Graphene SQL) and dashboard files so agents produce accurate queries and polished visuals.

- Magnitude: 3.0 out of 10 — Steady
- Stars: 133 total · +30 stars today, ≈ 33 by evening
- Star trust: star growth looks organic
- Category: Data & analytics · Language: TypeScript · Created: 2025-08-02 · Last push: 2026-10-01
- GitHub: https://github.com/graphene-data/graphene · Homepage: https://graphenedata.com · Page: https://gitnova.dev/en/r/graphene-data/graphene

## Useful for

- Build a metrics dashboard from a semantic model using a coding agent
- Write a Graphene SQL query with measures and modeled joins instead of manual JOINs
- Connect Postgres, BigQuery, Snowflake, ClickHouse, or DuckDB as a data source

## Why it’s here

- 30 stars so far today, about 33 expected by the end of the day. The usual pace is 1 per day, so that's 33× as much.
- Before this, the repository barely got any stars — about 0 per day.
- The spike has held for 2 days in a row — not a one-off blip.

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.
