## Useful for

- Build and flash a ztOS image onto a Galaxy S9 via the bundled installer
- Write a ztOS app in Python or Qt using the SDK
- Test phone hardware (sensors, modem, Wi-Fi) on mainline Linux

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-18 (UTC), 00:23–11:50: 101 → 106 stars (+5). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +11 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- The repository is 5 days old and already has 106 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
- Top new repositories this week: #191.

## 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: 5
- Issues and pull requests: 0
- Watchers: 0

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.
