[DISCUSS]: support Stargazers graph #97

Open Andre601 opened 3 years ago

Andre601 commented 3 years ago

First want to say that I really like this design of the graph, as it goes very well with the GitHub Dark theme I use.

Next, would I like to propose the idea of offering a similar looking graph for the overall stargazers a (collection of) repository/repositories is having, to give some more insight about a project's popularity and support.

Having this graph would go very well with the one showing the contributors and make the styles the same because right now do people like me need to use a different website/API to display how many people starred the project over time and that comes with downsides such as the image/SVG having a white background instead of a transparent one.

Would appreciate if something like that could be made, even if it was a separate project.

Hi, thanks for your watching on this project 😄 AFAIK, this project mainly focus on calculating Contributors Over Time, if you need the Stargazers Graph, there have some other tools to help you (Google GitHub Star trend), wait for others opinions 😄

That's why I said it would be okay if it became its own project. I just suggested it here because it was the closest place to do so.
