Stars per day
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 2026-10-23 (UTC), 00:40–10:27: 168003 → 168019 stars (+16). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +43 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- Interest is fading: the two-day pace is 49% of the previous week and a half.
- About 14 forks a day — people are taking the code.
- Recent forks include notable developers: @benthecarman (592 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.
