Open Source... Claimed functions:

Shotstars will help find and expose naked kings and their retinue (fact: stars in some repositories are inflated).

Shotstars calculates parameters: aggressive marketing, trend, fake stars, peak of popularity and its date.

Shotstars will calculate progress or regression over the last month (median - trend in percentage change and average - calculated in fact in times).

Shotstars Shotstars will calculate the names of the months that had the most and the least stars (mode / anti-mode).

Shotstars will output the longest period of time without adding stars. Shotstars scans repositories for stars added and removed with statistics for a selected time period.

Shotstars reports the real date of the repository (fact: developers can declare/fake/change the date of their projects commits, but Shotstars will not fool them, the utility will display real numbers).

Shotstars will show ~ the size of any public repository. Shotstars will also provide a short description of the repository. Shotstars offers a scan history with a selection of previously registered projects for quick checking.

Shotstars generates CLI/HTML reports (stats, time periods, duplicate user activity, urls, graphs and json). Shotstars can simulate results, documented hack: a function designed to check the utility's operation (to make sure) on dead/stable repositories without moving stars.

Shotstars finds users that overlap across Github projects, including those with hidden/private profiles.

Shotstars calculates to the minute and displays the time when the github rescan restriction is lifted (if token is not used).

Shotstars is created for people and works out of the box, OS support: Windows7+, GNU/Linux, Android (the user does not need: technical skills; registration/authorization on Github and even the presence of Python).

Shotstars processes tasks with jet speed and for free (cross-platform open source software, donations are welcome).
