🚀 Why GitGem?

GitHub is home to 200M+ repositories, but we only ever see the top 1%. GitGem breaks the echo chamber by using smart search strategies to surface high-quality, relevant projects that the algorithm usually skips.

  • Zero-Latency Discovery: Our pre-fetch engine ensures your next inspiration is ready before you even click.
  • Gamified Experience: Build your "Discovery Streak" and level up your OSINT skills.
  • Deep Personalization: AI-driven recommendations based on your viewing history and preferences.

✨ Key Features

🔍 Smart Exploration

Find exactly what you need with advanced filters for Star Ranges, Programming Languages, and Topics. From niche Rust libraries to viral TypeScript frameworks.

⚡ Performance-First

  • Pre-fetch Engine: Background loading for instant repo switching.
  • Direct API Integration: No database lag. Real-time data fresh from the source.
  • Token Rotation: Seamlessly switches between multiple GitHub tokens to maximize rate limits.

🎮 Gamified Discovery

🏁 Getting Started

1. Clone & Install

git clone https://github.com/blackghostosint/random-github-repo-2.git
cd random-github-repo-2
npm install

2. Configure API Keys

To handle high traffic and avoid rate limits, GitGem uses multiple GitHub tokens.

  1. Create a file at src/lib/server/ApiKeys.ts.
  2. Add your GitHub Personal Access Tokens (Classic, with public_repo scope):
export default class ApiKeys {
    static apiKeys: string[] = [
        'ghp_your_token_1',
        'ghp_your_token_2',
        'ghp_your_token_3'
    ];
}

3. Launch

npm run dev

Visit http://localhost:5173 to start your journey.


🛣️ Roadmap

  • AI Project Summarization: Automated TL;DR for every repository.
  • Global Leaderboard: See who's the top discoverer in the community.
  • Export to CSV/JSON: Take your discovered treasures anywhere.
  • Mobile App: Discovery on the go.
