It transforms raw star data into a dynamic, interactive star chart, visualizing your repository's journey through the worldwide ranking, complete with real-time updates and an optional soundscape. While GitHub offers basic star data, Warpchart provides a comprehensive "flight console" to monitor your project's visibility and growth in unprecedented detail. It addresses the limitations of static star history charts and opaque trending lists by offering a clear view of your repository's position, velocity, and surrounding projects in the global ranking. With features like a live status bar, an interactive star chart, and "scan cards" for neighboring repos, Warpchart empowers maintainers with deep insights into their project's trajectory.

Warpchart goes beyond basic star counts, offering a rich set of features that provide actionable insights into your repository's growth: * **Real-time Telemetry**: Get live updates on stars, worldwide rank, velocity, and estimated time to reach the next milestone. * **Interactive Star Chart**: Visualize your repository's position relative to others in a two-band space map, showing ranking neighbors and potential overtake targets. * **Spike Forensics**: Automatically correlate star spikes with Hacker News posts, Reddit discussions, and your releases, helping you understand what drives growth. * **Unique Soundscape**: Experience a fully synthesized Web Audio soundscape where each new star is a sonar ping, and milestone crossings play a quiet fanfare. * **Comprehensive Data**: Access velocity metrics, daily ladders, cumulative charts, heatmaps, and rank over time, providing a full instrument panel for growth analysis. * **Shareable Insights**: Easily embed badges and animated charts into your READMEs, and share dynamic Open Graph cards with live stats. * **Developer-Friendly**: Access all telemetry via a public, free, and cache-only REST API, an MCP server, and a powerful CLI. Warpchart provides the cockpit GitHub doesn't, allowing you to truly understand and react to your project's journey in the open-source world. ## Installation and Setup Setting up Warpchart for your repository is designed to be quick and straightforward, taking just about five minutes: 1. **Use as a Template**: Start by using the Warpchart repository as a template for your new project. 2. **Configure `mission.config.json`**: Edit the `mission.config.json` file to specify your repository's `owner/name` and an accent color. { "repo": "owner/name", "accent": "cyan" } 3. **Run Bootstrap**: Navigate to the "Actions" tab in your GitHub repository and run the `bootstrap` workflow. Alternatively, you can run it locally: bash GH_TOKEN=$(gh auth token) node collector/bootstrap.mjs After running locally, commit the `data/` directory. 4. **Deploy to Vercel**: Import your repository into Vercel. Add a `GITHUB_TOKEN` environment variable, which should be a fine-grained Personal Access Token (PAT) with read-only access to public repositories. 5. **Done**: The hourly `collect` workflow will automatically maintain your repository's history and trigger redeployments on Vercel. For local development, simply run: bash npm install GITHUB_TOKEN=$(gh auth token) npm run dev ## Examples Warpchart provides multiple ways to access its powerful telemetry, catering to developers, agents, and maintainers alike. ### CLI Usage The command-line interface offers quick access to key metrics: bash npx warpchart vuejs/core # rank, velocity, a braille star chart + who's hunting it npx warpchart hunters d3/d3 # who's about to pass it (and who it's about to pass) npx warpchart top 20 --lang Rust # the biggest repos, optionally by language npx warpchart velocity --lang Go # the fastest-growing repos right now npx warpchart compare react/react vuejs/core npx warpchart embed OWNER/NAME # a README embed snippet npx warpchart vuejs/core --json # raw JSON (agent friendly) ### REST API Access telemetry programmatically via the public, cache-only REST API at `/api/v1`: bash curl "https://warpchart.dev/api/v1/repo?repo=vuejs/core" # rank, velocity, neighbours, next gate curl "https://warpchart.dev/api/v1/leaderboard?language=Rust" # biggest repos, optionally by language curl "https://warpchart.dev/api/v1/velocity?limit=20&language=Go" # fastest movers, optionally by language curl "https://warpchart.dev/api/v1/overtakes?repo=d3/d3" # who is hunting a repo (and who it's about to pass) curl "https://warpchart.dev/api/v1/compare?repos=vuejs/core,react/react" curl "https://warpchart.dev/api/v1/embed?repo=OWNER/NAME" # README embed snippet The `GET /api/v1` endpoint provides a self-documenting index. ### Embeddable Assets Easily share your repository's growth with dynamic badges and animated charts: #### Embeddable Badge (SVG) markdown [![World rank](https://warpchart.dev/api/badge?repo=OWNER/NAME)](https://warpchart.dev/r/OWNER/NAME) #### Embeddable Animated Chart (SVG) html Live star telemetry ## Links * **GitHub Repository**: [santifer/warpchart](https://github.com/santifer/warpchart "Warpchart GitHub Repository" target="_blank") * **Live Demo**: [warpchart.dev](https://warpchart.dev "Warpchart Live Demo" target="_blank") * **License**: [MIT License](https://github.com/santifer/warpchart/blob/main/LICENSE "MIT License" target="_blank")
