When I came across a study that traced 4.5 million fake GitHub stars, it confirmed a suspicion I’d had for a while: stars are noisy. The issue is they’re visible, they’re persuasive, and they still shape hiring decisions, VC term sheets, and dependency choices—but they say very little about actual quality. I wrote StarGuard to put that number in perspective based on my own methodology inspired with what they did and to fold a broader supply-chain check into one command-line run. It starts with the simplest raw input: every starred_at timestamp GitHub will give. It applies a…

Over the weekend, I built a small project to help open-source projects better understand who starred their projects. It helps you see the number of stars per day, week, month etc so you can monitor the health and the general trend as well. Lastly, it lets you fetch their public contact info, if you wish to do so. I initally built it as a Python script but after a few friends said they had the same problem, I decided to make it into a website. Would love to hear what you think!

I created a leaderboard showcasing the top 1000 GitHub repositories based on the number of stars. With GitHub hosting over 100 million public repositories, this leaderboard highlights the top 0.001% in terms of the number of stars. Stars might not be the perfect metric for adoption—metrics like the number of monthly downloads could be more accurate—but this list still represents some of the most popular and influential projects in the open-source community. You can check out the leaderboard here: https://githublb.vercel.app/
