Questions

What is GitHub Trending?

GitHub Trending is the list of public repositories gaining the most stars over a day, a week or a month. It is the quickest way to see which open source projects developers are paying attention to right now.

How often is this list updated?

Every hour. Glasstab reads github.com/trending and caches it, so this page and the extension always show the current ranking.

How do I see GitHub Trending for Ruby every day without searching for it?

Install Glasstab, a free Chrome extension. It shows GitHub Trending (today, this week or this month) next to Hacker News, Product Hunt and launch videos every time you open a new tab.

Is there a GitHub Trending API?

GitHub has no official trending API. Glasstab exposes the list it reads as JSON at /api/feed/github?range=daily (or weekly, monthly).
