   I think someone else mentioned this as well, but unfortunately Github ties the "staring a repo" to the write permission. I think I can try to separate it out so it can ask for that scope when a user wants to use that feature.

   That's definitely something on my mind originally. But since I can't get traffic data from Github, the best thing I can do is to filter out the highly established repos and weigh new repos higher in the rankings. You can see that

   You mean to browse repos that you starred yourself? Yup probably pretty easy to do.

   Thanks, it's for starring a repo. Github ties it to that same permission scope. You can go to your Github integration settings and disable that scope just for a certain app if you want.

   Thanks for the feedback, the first thing on my list is definitely more personalization. I just wanted to get it out there and see if people liked it first.

   Right now if a repo is trending down (from the moving average) it will have a negative score and won't be showed at all. The algorithm basically looks at the moving average, the new watchers gained and the number of total watchers. It&

   Hi DC2, actually I do cache some of the results, first 10 days and top 50 repos per day. I think I didn't expect people to scroll as far as they did. I'll up that cache later

    Thanks, I actually did build something like that. My original inspiration was Google Trends (thus the UI) but the data wasn't very useful, traffic on github is very spiky, even on a log graph it didn't look good.

    Developer here, I subscribe to Github's official weekly newsletter and various other ones but always found that they did a poor job at highlighting what's trending. The "top trending" repos always seem to be most establi

    Author here, this is created with React and is basically an better interface on top of the Github search API. If you authenticate with your Github account, you'll increase the search rate limit.
