GitGem.org helps you discover open source that deserves attention: trending repos, curated gems, and developer showcases from GitHub, GitLab, and Codeberg. Ranked by star velocity, not just raw counts, so genuinely rising projects surface instead of the same old giants.
Hey Product Hunt, Gabriel here.
We built GitGem.org because finding good open source still mostly means refreshing GitHub Trending and hoping something interesting floats up. The big repos dominate, and genuinely promising new projects get buried before anyone notices them.
GitGem ranks by star velocity instead of raw totals, so a project going from 50 to 500 stars in a week can outrank one sitting on 40k. It pulls from GitHub, GitLab, and Codeberg, with curated gems, daily charts, and a showcase where developers can submit their own work.
It's free, there's no signup wall to browse, and there's a README badge so maintainers can show their rank.
Would love to hear what projects you think deserve more attention, and any feedback on what would make this more useful for how you discover open source.
