# What is it?
StarryLines retrieves from GitHub the best repositories for each language and then ranks them by the ratio between the number of stars and the number of lines of code.
The idea is to find the lines of code that seem to have been proportionally the most interesting for the greatest number of developers. Useful for learning or just for curiosity.
#### What should not be in StarryLines
Tutorials, cheat sheets, lists, roadmaps and other repositories that are not code or not actual projects.
Some filters are in place as well as a manual exclusion list. It is possible that there still are irrelevant entries in the tables.
If you think you see a repository that doesn't belong, please [open an issue](https://github.com/PabloLec/StarryLines/issues/new?assignees=PabloLec&labels=enhancement&template=repo_removal.md&title=Repository+deletion).
# Score calculation
The score is obtained by dividing the number of stars by the number of lines of code.
Star count is adjusted and several operations are applied to the code to obtain a relevant number of lines.
### Star count
Although the star count displayed in the table is left unchanged, the one taken into account is adjusted. The number of stars is divided by the proportion of code written in the main language.
For a repository whose main language is C, composed of 60% C and 40% Python with 100 stars in total, the final star count will be 60.
### Lines of code
The entire code is parsed and stripped of comments or documentation. The number of lines is calculated by the number of characters divided by 80 for each file.
The goal is to obtain a fair result, without penalizing the repositories with the most documentation.
Moreover, only files written in the main language are retained, others are ignored.
# Contributing
