A Go web service that generates SVG charts plotting a GitHub repository's stars over time, served as embeddable images via starchart.cc. It uses GitHub API pagination with smart sampling for large repos and Redis caching to handle rate limits.
Use cases
- generate a star history chart for my github repo
- embed a stargazers-over-time svg in my readme
- track repository popularity growth over time
- show star trend badge for large repositories
- self-host a github stars chart service
When to choose
- you want an embeddable SVG chart of your repo's star history in a README
- you need to visualize star growth for repos with thousands of stargazers
- you want to self-host the chart generator with your own GitHub tokens
When to avoid
- you need analytics beyond star counts, like forks or traffic
- you want interactive JavaScript charts rather than static SVG images
- you cannot provide GitHub API tokens and need high request volumes
