Turn any repo into
an animated star badge
Generate pixel-perfect SVG animations that simulate clicking the ★ Star button. Embed directly in your README — no dependencies, no JavaScript.
Use your own GitHub token (optional)
Why use it: higher API limits and private repository access.
Safety: token is sent only in request headers, never put into URL, and saved only in this browser (localStorage on this device).
Recommended: create a fine-grained PAT with read-only access to specific repos.

Use the trash icon at the right of the token field to delete the saved token completely.
How it works
3 GitHub API calls run in parallel to grab stars, forks, file tree, and latest commit — all in under 500ms.
A pixel-perfect replica of GitHub's dark UI is generated server-side as a pure SVG animation. No screenshots, no iframes.
Copy the Markdown snippet into your README. The animation plays inline — a cursor moves and clicks ★ Star — encouraging visitors to star your repo.
