The commit history reads hexojs/hexo a second time
methodologyFix-labelled changes, file change frequency, ownership concentration and maintenance cadence, each computed from this repository's analyzed commit window. None of them is derived from stars, which is why they are allowed to disagree with the curve above.
Attention is not adoption.
Stars against usage
No published package was detected for this repository, so there is nothing to lay over star growth.

Notes on hexojs/hexo
- How many stars does hexojs/hexo have?
- GitHub currently reports 41,766 stars for hexojs/hexo. The chart itself is rebuilt from historical star data, which records star actions and not unstars, so it reads as an attention signal rather than a net star count.
- What does recent star activity look like for hexo?
- gitdebt observed about 18 public star actions for hexojs/hexo over the latest 90 days of archive coverage (about 18 in the latest 30). This is an approximate attention signal, not a net-star count, because unstars are not present. That's below its lifetime average activity pace, which is common for mature projects.
- Is hexo still active?
- Public archive data shows about 18 star actions for hexojs/hexo in the latest 30 days of coverage. For repository activity, use the commit heatmap, commit trend, and contributor charts on this page.
- When was hexo created?
- hexojs/hexo was created on September 23, 2012. The first public star activity observed for hexojs/hexo is from Oct 2012.

<sub>Star history source: Historical star data · Covers through September 12, 2026 · Still updating — <a href="https://gitdebt.com/hexojs/hexo?ref=readme">gitdebt</a></sub>Light and dark variants, alt text, and one provenance line. Provenance is text in your README, never baked into the image URL, so the chart stays cacheable.
Paste it into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or any coding agent with your checkout open. It carries the measured numbers, the exact snippets, and the rules — including replacing an existing star-history widget in place rather than stacking a second chart under it.
