Two lists: the GitHub repositories I star, organised by category (automatic), and external tools I use day to day (hand-picked).

Repos I follow

Generated from my GitHub stars by star-organizer; this site serves a versioned snapshot — the date next to it says from when. how this is generated →

This is a personal hub: I keep it organized for my own daily use, and leave it open for anyone who wants to explore.
