# reacher-z/Awesome-REA

> An independent curated collection of reverse-engineering tools, case studies and research papers covering websites, games, apps, native binaries, firmware and protocols. It indexes 3,300+ resources and organizes them by target and task.

- Magnitude: 3.3 out of 10 — Early signal
- Stars: 108 total · Not enough measurements today
- Star trust: star growth looks organic
- Category: Security · Language: Python · License: MIT · Created: 2026-10-16 · Last push: 2026-10-20

## Useful for

- Find a tool for inspecting or unpacking minified JavaScript bundles
- Pick a Ghidra or MCP integration to analyze compiled binaries and recover symbols
- Compare case studies and papers before rebuilding a game or web interface

## Why it’s here

- There are not enough fresh counter measurements for today's UTC day. The gain is unknown.
- The repository is 5 days old and already has 108 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #168.
- About 6 forks a day — people are taking the code.

## 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: 111
- Issues and pull requests: 2,238
- Watchers: 4
- Average over the last week: 23 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)
- Latest release: v0.12.0 (2026-10-17)

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.
