← The Weekly Star · Week 415 – 11 Oct 2026

The whole sky

The edition makes a choice. This is the record around it: every repository seen on the boards that week, charted the way an atlas charts stars.

Each star is a repository seen on any board this week: further right, the more it grew; higher, the more days it held a place on the daily board; brighter, the more stars it gained. 46 stayed two days or more; the 4 that made the shortlist are lettered in order and drawn as one figure; the ringed one is the Weekly Star. A circled star had no measured growth.

Magnitude 1: 10k+
Magnitude 2: 4k+
Magnitude 3: 1.5k+
Magnitude 4: 500+
Magnitude 5: 150+
Magnitude 6: 0+

The catalogue

The figure, star by star

The shortlist in its order, with each day's place on GitHub's daily board. A bigger mark is a higher place; a dot is a day off the board.

The faint stars

Everything else, by stars gained

Growth and gains compare a repository's first and last captured star totals inside the week. A repository seen once has no measured change and sits at the left edge, circled.
