The GitHub Integration plugin brings your starred GitHub repositories into your vault as structured notes, making it easier to track and reference useful projects within your knowledge base. It fetches metadata like repository language, topics, creation date, and star count, and organizes them using automatic tagging. With incremental updates, the plugin ensures only new stars are added without overwriting existing notes. Users can customize where these notes are stored, and using a GitHub token allows for higher API usage limits. This is especially helpful for developers, researchers, or anyone curating open-source tools for long-term learning or documentation.
The GitHub Stars plugin enhances your Obsidian notes by displaying star counts next to GitHub repository links. It automatically detects GitHub URLs and appends a visual indicator showing how many users have starred each project, offering a quick sense of popularity or relevance. The display can be customized in terms of format and number style, and the plugin caches star data to reduce API calls.
