## Useful for

- Run Jaeger all-in-one in Docker and view traces in the UI at localhost:16686
- Send traces from an app over OTLP via gRPC (4317) or HTTP (4318)
- Connect Jaeger to Elasticsearch, Cassandra or ClickHouse for production trace storage

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-12 (UTC), 11:44–13:41: 23283 → 23283 stars (+0). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +1 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- GitHub Trending Go today: #6, +9 stars.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

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.
