COLLECTIONS, NOT SEARCH QUERIES Fifteen curated collections, each with its own topics and star range: - AI & LLMs: models, agents, RAG, inference - AI Coding Tools: MCP servers, agents, dev tooling - Self-Hosted: homelab, Docker, services you run yourself - iOS & Swift: SwiftUI, Xcode, Apple platforms - Web & Frontend: React, Next.js, Vue, TypeScript - Backend & APIs: Go, Rust, Node, GraphQL - DevOps & Cloud: Kubernetes, Docker, Terraform - Data & Python: data science, notebooks, SQL - Game Dev: Godot, Unity, game engines - Security: pentesting, CTF, defensive tooling - Learn & Awesome: awesome lists, tutorials, roadmaps - Terminal & CLI: Neovim, TUI apps, shell tools - Design & UI: CSS, animation, design systems - Automation & Bots: workflows, scrapers, bots - Privacy & FOSS: encryption, VPN, open alternatives SWIPE TO SORT Swipe right to save a project, left to pass. Every card shows stars, forks, language, license, topics and last update before you spend a tap on it. YOUR LIBRARY Saved repositories land in a library you can search and filter by language, topic and star count, and sort by date added, stars or forks. STAR RANGE Giants or newcomers, your call. Set any range from under 1k stars to over 100k, or use a preset: Superstar, Legendary, Elite, Trending, Popular, Growing, Beginner. DAILY DISCOVERY Turn on one daily reminder at a time you choose. It brings back a repository you saved, and never the same saved one twice. BUILT FOR THE PLATFORM Native SwiftUI on iPhone, iPad and Mac. Dark mode throughout. No account, no sign-in, no ads, no tracking. Repositories come straight from the public GitHub API. Free, with an optional tip jar. No subscription. GitHubba is an independent project and is not affiliated with or endorsed by GitHub, Inc.
