A peak day has at least 2 times the net stars of the median day of this chart, and at least 100 more. For each peak day, the list shows the repositories that gained the most net stars that day. It also shows their GitHub releases of that day or the day before (UTC), and their creation date when it was 14 days or less before. These events occurred near the same day. They do not show why the stars came.

How a repository gets this Tag
An agent read the description, the GitHub topics, and the start of the README of each repository, and chose Tags only from the checked-in Tag list. For each Tag it quoted the text, and a code check kept the Tag only when the quote is in that text. The quote under each repository is that evidence. A Tag does not rank repositories and does not say that one can replace another. A wrong Tag? Use "Report a problem with this page" on the page of the repository. Withheld Repositories are left out of all numbers on this page.
