How a repository gets into this Category
A rule in the AwesomeRepos source code puts a repository in this Category when one of these is true. A machine applies the rule to each repository each hour, and a repository can be in more than one Category. The rule groups repositories by area. It does not rank them and does not say that one is better than another.
One of its topics is api-documentation, bazel, benchmark, benchmarking, build-system, build-tool, changelog, cmake, code-formatter, code-generation, code-generator, code-quality, code-review, codegen, debug, debugger, debugging, dependency-management, dev-tools, developer-tool, developer-tools, devtools, diff, documentation, documentation-tool, dotenv, environment-variables, eslint, formatter, git, or one of 28 more topics.
A topic starts with vscode-, eslint-, git-, github-, prettier-.
Its description contains the words “linter”, “formatter”, “debugger”, “profiler”, “language server”, “vs code”, “vscode”, “visual studio code”, “build tool”, “build system”, “package manager”, “static analysis”, “code generator”, “git”, “github”, “developer tool”, “developer tools”, “monorepo”.
Withheld Repositories are left out of all numbers on this page. The daily line adds up the Star History of the repositories in the Category now.
