ABOUT
GitHub Trending Archives is a daily record of GitHub's trending page. GitHub shows what is trending right now, but keeps no history. This site captures the list at the end of every day and keeps it.
I'm Matt Linebarger. I like seeing what is trending on GitHub, and whenever I missed a day or a week it bugged me that there was no good way to go back and see what was hot. So I built one. This is one of the first projects from Inkling Labs, the company I started to build apps and sites like this.
Nightly capture started on July 30, 2026. Everything before that comes thanks to the Internet Archive Wayback Machine, which had captures of the trending page going back to September 2014. A few days are missing where no usable capture exists, and the 2014 to 2016 pages never showed total stars or forks, so I've left the two numbers blank for those years instead of guessing at them.
