About GitBored

GitBored indexes open source repositories from GitHub trending, star-based discovery and user submissions. Each project is rescanned on a schedule and gets a daily snapshot, which powers the daily, weekly and monthly growth numbers.

Every qualified project also gets an AI embedding built from its description, topics and README. Related projects are found by comparing those embeddings and weighting matches by star tier, so a small library is not always compared to the biggest framework in its category.

Replace github.com with gitbored.com in any repository URL to open its page. Unknown repositories can be submitted right there.

Qualified

Shown in search and given daily scans, snapshots and embeddings:

• 50,000+ stars, regardless of activity
• 10,000 to 50,000 stars with a commit in the last year
• 100 to 10,000 stars with a commit in the last 6 months

Incubating

Repositories that do not meet the thresholds yet, plus formerly qualified projects that went quiet. Rescanned weekly and promoted as soon as they qualify.

Not tracked

Repositories under 100 stars with no commit in 6 months are kept out of scheduled scans.
