👋 Hey Product Hunt!


I'm excited to share getStack with you — a tool that helps you track open-source technology trends straight from GitHub. I have been thinking about this project for the last 2 years and finally took the time to build it in the last month.

Every week, getStack fetch more than 25K GitHub repositories, amongst the most popular, extract the technologies and save it in a large ClickHouse instance.

📈 Track adoption trends of any language, framework, or tool over time

🔍 Explore the top repos using a given technology

🧠 Instantly see the tech stack behind any GitHub repo (no manual digging!)

We built getStack because staying on top of the open-source world can be overwhelming — there’s so much noise and not enough signal. getStack is meant to give developers, tech leads, and curious minds a clear view of what’s gaining traction.

If you're scouting new tools, doing market research, or just love following tech trends — this is for you.

Would love to hear what you think, and what you'd want us to add next! 🙌

Can users bookmark or keep track of specific repositories?

Samuel Bodin

@sebastian_leo Not really for the moment, you can change github.com to getstack.dev and get any repo (above 1500 stars), e.g: https://github.com/n8n-io/n8n -> https://getstack.dev/n8n-io/n8n
What would be the use case? having notification when a technology is added or deleted?

Charlotte Richardson

Is there any historical trend data available beyond just weekly updates like month over month or year over year insights for a tech stack?

Faisal Iftikhar

This idea is really impactful especially for tech leads and startup founders.

Supa Liu

This tool nails it by making it super easy to keep up with the hottest tech and open-source projects on GitHub. Weekly updates and clear trend tracking mean you’re always in the loop, and a quick dive into each repo’s tech stack is just the cherry on top. A must-have for tech enthusiasts and developers alike!

Is there a way to filter repositories by programming language or specific domains like AI, DevOps Web3?

Hina Siddiqui

Keeping up with open source trends can feel like a full time gig so this is a fantastic way to highlight what really matters. Does the platform also shine a light on those lesser-known but rapidly growing repos or is it mainly focused on the most starred ones?

This tool offers a clear, up-to-date window into the world of popular technologies and open-source projects on GitHub. I found the weekly updates and trend tracking especially useful for spotting what's gaining traction. With just one click, you can explore each repository’s full tech stack—making it a great resource for developers, tech leads, and anyone keeping a pulse on the open-source ecosystem.
