- Magnitude: 4.0 out of 10 — Early signal
- Stars: 100 total · +20 stars measured 2026-10-07, 16:16–17:59 UTC, ≈ 25 by evening

## Useful for

- Build a deck with themes, shapes, and charts and save it as .pptx
- Export slides to PDF or PNG using deckcraft-cli render
- Drive a presentation from a script or AI agent via the CLI and MCP server

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-07 (UTC), 16:16–17:59: 80 → 100 stars (+20). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +25 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 0 days old and already has 100 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #150.
- About 119 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: 52
- Issues and pull requests: 0
- Watchers: 2
- Average over the last week: 25 per day
- Usual pace: too little history (under two weeks)
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 12

## Stars per day, last 4 days (oldest → newest, today is partial)

2026-10-04 … 2026-10-07: 0, 0, 12, 20

## Spotted in now

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.
