Show HN: I built a client-side GitHub repo comparator

Based, I built a client-side GitHub repo comparator works in show hn launch.

Profile

I wanted to compare star growth between a few repos and couldn't find a tool that did it the way I wanted, so I built one.Most existing tools have a backend that proxies requests to the GitHub API, which means your token goes through someone else's server. They also don't cache results, so if you look up the same repo twice you're burning rate limit both times. And they're mostly single-metric viewers.This tool is entirely client-side. Your GitHub token goes directly from your browser to the GitHub API, no backend.Results are cached in the browser so repeat lookups are instant You can search for repos by name or paste a URL, add multiple repos, and compare their star history and contribution

Within the show hn launch space, the company focuses on its core offering rather than a broad product line.

Its current recorded stage is Show HN launch.
