Show HN: Track your favorite GitHub repos, not just star them
- theowenyoung 5y agoAfter starring too many Github awesome repos, I found that I need to track them, not just star them. So I created trackawesomelist.com to track 500+ most popular awesome repos, updated daily, for free. For browsing awesome repos on Github, I have two pain points, one is that I can't see the latest added items, and the second is that I can't see the star count of the items, so I created trackawesomelist.com and solved my own pain points, I wonder if you also have these pain points. Any feedback will be helpful, Thanks!
- Fileformat 5y agoNice! Great that you have an RSS feed too!
- terrific 5y agoGreat ideas. I need this.
- vladholubiev 5y agoThis is excellent! I dreamed of such thing all the time. Do you mind sharing some technical details on how did you implement data collection, diff, search, aggregation, etc?
- theowenyoung 5y agoThanks! I use mdast to parsing https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome for collecting awesome list. then, clone all these git awesome repos, parsed their readme by mdast, split with list-item, or heading, got these items updated time by `git blame` command, added these items to database. Then, I used gatsby to build a static site, 2 times deploy per day.
