StarMe
Add an animated GitHub star reminder to your README
Star Me helps open-source maintainers turn README visitors into GitHub stars. Paste any GitHub repo URL and it generates a lightweight animated SVG that shows exactly where to click the Star button. You can embed it directly in your README, docs, or site in seconds. No heavy scripts, no complex setup, just a simple visual prompt designed to increase visibility and make starring your project feel natural.
Hi PH! I’m the maker of Star Me.
I built this because a lot of open-source projects get README traffic, but many visitors still don’t notice the GitHub Star button. I wanted a simple visual way to make that action more obvious without adding scripts or heavy embeds.
Star Me lets you paste a repo URL and generate a lightweight animated SVG that shows users where to click Star. You can embed it directly in your README, docs, or site in a few seconds.
I’d really love feedback on:
whether you’d use this on your own repo
which animation style feels useful vs distracting
what would make this more valuable for maintainers
Happy to answer anything here today.
