Starkit - Auto-update Your README with GitHub Stars
GitHub stars are a decent signal for what you find interesting — but they just sit there in a private list. Starkit pulls that list and puts it somewhere useful: your README or a dedicated web page, automatically.
What is Starkit?
Starkit is an automation tool that fetches your GitHub starred repositories and either updates your README.md with the list or builds a standalone web page around it. Set it up once and it stays current without any manual effort.
Features
Automated star sync Connects to the GitHub API to fetch your starred repos and updates the output on a schedule or on demand. No manual copy-paste.
Two output options
- README.md integration — generates a formatted list you can embed directly in your GitHub profile or any repo README
- Dedicated web page — builds a standalone page that displays your stars with links and descriptions
Configurable display Filter by language, sort by date or stars, include or exclude descriptions — the output adapts to what you actually want to show.
Easy setup Minimal configuration required. Works with a GitHub token and a couple of settings.
