    Is this an editorialized list? Or is there some sort of programmatic filter applied?

    Would have expected to see our repo, roboflow/sports, here given 1211 new stars (4.3x) this week.

    Comparing to Node it seems to be at about the same rate: https://star-history.com/#denoland/deno&nodejs/node&Date. It's actually quite impressive how close it is.
  • Ask HN: Why do you all think that Htmx is such a recent development?
    1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 22 May 2024
    I created the library that would become intercooler.js in 2012 and released it in 2013, based on a mashup of $.load(), pjax & angular attributes.

    The world at that time was not ready to consider an alternative to the hot new ideas coming out of the big tech companies (angular from google, react from facebook).

    In 2020 during covid i decided to rewrite intercooler.js w/o the jQuery dependency and rename it to htmx. The django community started picking it up because they were being largely ignored by the next.js/etc. world and they didn't have a built in alternative like rails has w/ Turbo.

    In 2023 it got picked up by an ocaml twitch streamer, teej_dv, who knew some other folks in the twitch programming community. He told ThePrimeagen about it who took a look at it in July 2023 on stream and became enthusiastic about it. At the same time FireshipDev did an "htmx in 100 seconds" short on it. That lit the rocket. I was lucky that I also had just released my book https://hypermedia.systems at around the same time (it had been cancelled by a major publisher about a year beforehand.)

    Another thing that happened is that Musk bought twitter, and a large number of big tech twitter accounts left. This opened up an opportunity for new tech twitter accounts to grow up, like a fire in a forest. I am pretty good at twitter and was able to take advantage of that situation.

    Here's the story visually:

    So I spent about a decade screaming into the void about hypermedia and had largely given up on the idea making a dent, rewrote intercooler.js just to stay sane during covid and then got very, very lucky.

    I have some questions about the Github Star history, it's very unusual to see a ~1 year old with 20k+ stars.

    It went from 6k to 15k+ stars in a few days around 2023 Christmas when global internet traffic is usually lowest, and I couldn't find any major social media posts or announcements around that time. If you're gonna buy stars don't buy 10k+ stars on one day, spread it out a bit!

    That’s a great project you pulled off. From the time I starred it (10-12h ago I think), and upon re-checking this post, you gained 500+ stars lol.

  • What I learned from looking at 900 most popular open source AI tools
    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 14 Mar 2024
    You can actively see a fresh "hype curve" in the transformer-debugger repo that was posted a couple days ago (https://github.com/openai/transformer-debugger) (star history https://star-history.com/#openai/transformer-debugger&Date).

    Regardless of the repo's stars or how valuable it really is, at the time I saw it posted to HN, it had 1.6k stars/16 hours. What channel are people listening to to star it so quickly. I'm not implying any nefariousness, mind you, I'm only wondering where all the stargazers were referred from so fast and in such volume.

  • What I learned in 6 months of working on a CodeGen dev tool GPT Pilot
    6 projects | dev.to | 29 Feb 2024
    I’ve been releasing open-source projects for years now, and I’ve always wanted to see how fast my Github repo is growing compared to other successful repositories on https://star-history.com/. The problem is that on Star History, I’m unable to zoom into the graph, so a new repo that has 1,000 stars cannot be compared with a big repo that has 50,000 because you can’t see how the bigger repo does in its beginning. So, I asked GPT Pilot to build this functionality. It scrapes Github repos for stargazers, saves them into the database, plots them on a graph, and enables the graph to be zoomed in and out.
