I built a small side project: Telegram GitHub Stars Bot. @gh_stars_bot
It’s a Telegram bot that pings you in real time when someone stars your repo on GitHub. Why? GitHub stars are one of the simplest signals of interest/traction, but unless you’re constantly refreshing your repo page, you miss the dopamine hit . This bot solves that by dropping the notification straight into Telegram. What it does - Tracks new stars on any public repo - Sends real-time Telegram notifications - Lets you subscribe to multiple repos per chat - Shows bot/repo stats - Respects GitHub API rate limits and supports access control Repo |
