Show HN: Generate a video to animate stars of any GitHub repository

42 pointsby scastielover 1 year ago
I made this as a fun tiny project to experiment with Remotion [1] to generate videos. You can find the source code on GitHub [2].<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.remotion.dev&#x2F;" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.remotion.dev&#x2F;</a><p>[2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;scastiel&#x2F;github-stars-video">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;scastiel&#x2F;github-stars-video</a>

Neat! There&#x27;s something pretty satisfying about the animation :)<p>I wish I could tune the video duration and make the ones with 100k+ stars go on fooooooooorever, maybe also with a (compressed) timeline that shows roughly when &quot;batches&quot; of likes happen. Like when you fast forward through a YouTube live recording with the emoji

Why would someone need an animation of a repo&#x27;s GitHub stars? Showing off in a slide in a tech talk?

Great work and cool-looking animation. Is there a way to extend the duration from 0 to current stars?

Maybe add to readme example of output? Either gif&#x2F;mp4 with segment of animation?

Simple and intuitive. Love the scrolling animation of the user profiles. I guess if it were slightly slower, perhaps it would be better.

Funny! Nice idea.<p>If this were done as an animated SVG, then it would be quite easy to have this embedded so it is always up to date.

The &quot;404&quot; animation is great
