Why these Tags: an agent read the README and quoted it
  • Statistics library from the readme: ROOT comes with histogramming capabilities in an arbitrary number of dimensions, curve fitting, statistical modelling, minimization
  • Chart library from the readme: final visualization in form of highly customizable, publication-ready plots
  • Distributed computing from the readme: a general parallel processing framework, RDataFrame, that can considerably speed up an analysis, taking full advantage of multi-core and distributed systems.

An agent gave these Tags from the fixed Tag list in the AwesomeRepos source code. A code check kept each Tag only when its quote is in the text. A wrong Tag? Report an error with the form at the end of this page.

The star count of each day is the latest count minus the net stars of the later days.

Add this Star History to a README

The images follow the light or dark theme of the page that shows them, and update every hour. Add ?theme=light or ?theme=dark to the chart address to keep one theme.

The timeline comes from the creation date and the releases on the Repository Host, the Admission, the Star History, and the Observations. Star milestones show only when the Star History records the day. The list shows up to 5 stable releases from the latest 10 releases recorded. When none of them is stable, one item counts the pre-releases. On the chart of net stars each day, a solid line marks each recorded release.

Health facts

Measured facts in four separate dimensions, each with a date and a source. AwesomeRepos does not add them into one score. AwesomeRepos reads the weekly commits, the changelog, and the community files each week for the 5,000 visible repositories with the most stars and for each rising repository.
