# GitHub Stars Tagger (v1.0.3)

A Google Chrome extension that lets you add tags to your starred repositories directly on GitHub.

## About

I built this Chrome extension to fill a gap that has been frustrating me for some time now on GitHub.

There is currently no way (apart from filtering by language) to categorise/organise the repositories that you have starred.

There currently are external solutions to this issue such as:

* [astralapp.com](http://astralapp.com/): a separate site

* [Oh My Star](http://www.ohmystarapp.com/): a native application

However, what I wish is to create an experience as transparent as possible for the users, so that it feels like all the added functionality is native to GitHub's website.

## Instalation

To install the extension, simply visit the [Chrome Web Store](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/github-stars-tagger/aaihhjepepgajmehjdmfkofegfddcabc).

## Limitations

Currently, the functionality is limited to the `/stars` page but I eventually want to bring a similar experience to individual repository pages.

There is also a hard limitation on the number of repositories you can add tags to which is `512` (should be fine for a while) as I am using [Chrome storage.sync](https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/storage#property-sync) as a mean to store the data (which is then neatly shared across your different computers).

I am tracking this limitation, should an issue arise.
