Caution
Caution: one person wrote most of the recent commits.
Why
- One person wrote 92% of human commits in the last year, so the project depends on them continuing. (source 1, source 2)
What would change this
- A second person takes a substantial share of commits.
- Partly checked: maintenance (Commit counts are estimated: the commit sample stops before the window start, so GitHub's totals were scaled by the sampled bot share.; Authors in the last 90 days are counted from the sampled commits only.)

Stars
CompleteOrganic, confidence high
Bursts
- Mar 17, 2025 to Apr 4, 2025: about 340 more stars than usual, peak 57 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks.
- Jul 6, 2025 to Jul 8, 2025: about 95 more stars than usual, peak 47 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks, a jump in issues and pull requests.
- Dec 24, 2025 to Dec 25, 2025: about 35 more stars than usual, peak 28 in one day, a spike that tapers off. Outside explanation: a jump in forks, a jump in issues and pull requests.
