GitHub repositories taking off in the last 7 days
Ranked by how many more stars each repo got in the last 7 days than its pace over the 7 days before would predict, lowest first. Star counts come from GitHub. Last updated 12 Nov 2026, 09:20 UTC.
?
- Stars gained
- New stars in the window. "all" means the repo is younger than the window, so the number is every star it has.
- Today
- Stars since midnight US Pacific time, so a partial day.
- Above pace
- How many more stars the repo got than its pace in the window before would predict. +500 means 500 more than usual.
- Momentum
- A daily score: 8 points per star and 2 per fork since midnight UTC, reduced for repos that are this busy every day.
- Speed-up
- Stars per day in the window divided by stars per day in the window before. "New" means the repo is younger than the window. "Under 14 days" (twice the window; "Under 2 years" for 1 year) means it is older than the window but too young for a full window before it to compare with.
- Suspected
- Repositories with at least 50 stars are left out as likely bought stars when they have no detected programming language and got those stars within a day of being created; or got them within 14 days while having no watchers, at most 1 fork, no detected language or under 1 KB of code other than HTML and CSS, and either 5 KB or less of files or an owner that is a personal account with at most 1 follower. Repositories with no detected language are also left out when, at any age, they have 5 KB or less of files and got at least 90% of their stars on a single day that ended more than a day ago; or have 5 KB or less of files and belong to a personal account with no followers that was created at most an hour before the repository. Any repository with at least 50 stars is also left out when, under 3 days old, it has no watchers and at least 5 forks and belongs to a personal account with no followers; it stays out while that account has no followers. Some repositories are also left out, or kept in, by hand after a review of the daily lists, whatever the rules above say. See them.
- Bars
- Stars per day (per week for 90 days and 1 year). Bright bars are the selected window. Heights use a square-root scale, so quieter days stay visible next to a spike.
