## Useful for

- Swap the official postgres image for malisper/pgrust in Docker without changing configs
- Run pgrust in the browser via WebAssembly to try it without installing
- Connect with a regular psql and run queries against the compatible server

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-26 (UTC), 11:33–13:13: 5518 → 5525 stars (+7). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +28 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- Over the last two days the pace is 5.5× that of the previous week and a half.
- Elevated gains were measured on the last 3 completed UTC days in a row. Continued growth is not guaranteed.
- GitHub Trending Rust today: #8, +88 stars.

## 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: 214
- Issues and pull requests: 162
- Watchers: 47
- Average over the last week: 37 per day
- Usual pace: 6 per day
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 8
- Latest release: v0.4-beta (2026-10-22)

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.
