How to categorize Github stars?

Publish Date: Mar 4 '19

I star projects that I find interesting and may use later and the amount of pages in my Star page grows. Anyone knows a tool to somehow split them into some categories/group by tags? Thanks.

    Why not using something like Pocket and save them there? That way you can categorize them by tags.

      If I knew about Pocket at that time, I'd use it probably. I don't want to do that now, though (500+ stars would be pita to process).

        If you want to experiment a little bit you can try to use both GitHub’s API and Pocket’s API to automate that process for you. Or maybe someone already did something similar, I haven’t checked.

    On the Stars page you can filter the repos based on Languages

    I've used Astral in the past for categorizing GitHub stars

    It would be awesome to have it as a chrome extension which filters on the stars page.
    Anyone's eager to create it?

      I might if I can find some free time for it. Also, adding categories during when starring might be better than doing it after.
