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 occur near the same day. They do not show why the stars came.

How a repository gets this Tag

An agent reads the description, the GitHub topics, and the start of the README of each repository. It chooses Tags only from the Tag list in the AwesomeRepos source code. For each Tag, it quotes the text. A code check keeps the Tag only when the quote is in that text. The quote under each repository is that evidence. A Tag does not rank repositories. It does not say that one repository can replace another. To report a wrong Tag, use "Report a problem with this page" on the page of the repository. All numbers on this page count only visible repositories.
