2.0 Steady Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 18, 2026, 11:14 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

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 2026-10-18 (UTC), 00:27–11:09: 443 → 449 stars (+6). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +15 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • Over the last two days the pace is 4.3× that of the previous week and a half.
  • GitHub Trending Go today: #18, +29 stars.

Measured growth: the last 7 completed days

New stars over 7 days: 61. +85% versus the preceding 7 days.

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.
