🆕 Lists are now available as a public beta!

[bailey]

⭐ Lists level up the starring experience by making it easy to organize and curate your favorite repositories on GitHub. You can create public lists that appear on your stars page at https://github.com/USERNAME?tab=stars. Learn more about Lists in our documentation.

We can't wait for you all to try it out - let us know what you think here in Discussions!

There is no way to turn it off, and it eats vertical real-estate (or it becomes a tab option)

I need to use the listings software from here.
Thank you.

[a420gmoon]

Very good experience Font Awesome 6

[kattjevfel]

Seriously, how is this still not an option? I have it blocked in my adblocker but it's obviously there like an eyesore on any other device I may be using. Absolutely hating this "feature" taking up space for no reason.

[kbridge]

Love this feature. It saves people like me who star hundreds of repos every day. 😂

I want to suggest allowing users to comment on repos in markdown why they star it.

[konhi]

This! There should be a place where we could thank repo owners and tell them why they did an awesome job.

[timlehr]

Exactly! I've been using third-party tools to sort my stars, so this is a dream.

[eebbann]

I agree to this. makes a lot of sense

[a420gmoon]

I don't know if it's a third-party tool, OK! I agree.

[TomGalla11]

The lists are quite good, but I would leave it at the top and/or where it was before! Without anything under the profile, it is just a waste of space and on mobile (iPad) the tab at the top is hidden because my screen is too narrow.
Another point is I would add a line between the project information and the forks/stars/watch information (in the repos) then it's a bit easier to read.

Additional feature request: Function to make lists private, kinda like repos.

[DigitalGreyHat]

@TomGalla11 #8608 this contains your feature request.

[FelixWeichselgartner]

Yes. Private Lists would be awesome!

[TechStudent10]

This is awesome if you want to keep track of things like "Important modules" or "{project name} dependencies".

[konhi]

Cool idea!

[jac0b-w]

My only gripe with this feature is that there is not a 'sort by' drop down like there is for the normal starred list.

[ConorSheehan1]

Would be nice to allow custom sort order too, maybe drag and drop or something inside the edit list modal.

[bjbrianj]

Help me walk me through all of it like I was brand new just trust me

[daniehl]

Kann ich das denn

[liflovs]

+1 It need a proper ordering capabilities. At least custom order

[linuxmobile]

Yeah. And in under a list we can't sort by Recently starred, recently active...

[jizhang02]

I think adding a tag is more comfortable when you star a rep. Next time, you can just filter your tags to locate your starred rep.
😄

[kbridge]

And allow multiple tags. Then we can tag a repo with both 'C++' and 'Network Programming'.

[TechStudent10]

Yeah, maybe tags would be better.

[bjbrianj]

Explain please step by step

[Harindulk]

cool feature :)

[bjbrianj]

You are all very eager to get this moving so walk me through it

[hichamisi]

Hi

[sgbaird]

Fantastic! I had ~350 stars over the last several years, and it's awesome to be able to organize them. It was tough but useful to come up with the categories and choose emoji's that made sense (I like the example of emoji's and stuck with that - it makes it a lot easier to quickly add to the list when the emoji's make sense). I take it other people will be able to see your lists when they go to your starred repositories, correct?

Here's what mine looks like now (I hit the 16 list limit towards the late middle of my organization). I'd opt for 20, but too many lists could defeat the purpose of organizing it (I'm assuming that's why it was limited to 16).

I really like that you can add a single repository to multiple lists.

More granular control of searching for lists (similar to tag searches where you can select multiple criteria, or something where you can select all that match at least one of the criteria) would be a nice feature to have.

[astrochun]

Yea, I have over 300 and wanted to do batch list additions. Decided to venture into making an app for this but the GitHub API does not currently support stars list (either retrieval or addition).

I tried to write a Google extension for quick classification management.

This looks like - will try it out.

Mmm, looking forward to seeing the GitHub API support this once it's out of beta! It'd be great to do some analysis on my starred repos and organise them into "automatic" lists.

[a420gmoon]

It's included for me?

[bskinn]

It would also be a huge help for the initial process of filing my hundreds of existing stars to have a "repositories not in any list" filter for the Stars list.

THANK YOU for this feature!

[MattMattV]

I totally second this, at time of writing I have almost 4000 starred repo, it would definitely help me sort them and do a whole "spring cleanup" of my stars list !

[merspieler]

Me too. Makes things easier to handle and allows for finding stars which one accidentally didn't put into a list when adding it

[konhi]

This is absolutely awesome! 💕
I used to not star repos, so my stars tab would be clean, but with this feature I can appreciate cool projects with organization in mind!

[sezero]

Stargazers link is lost to this feature

[WojciechMigda]

To be fair, the url is still working, just append /stargazers to repo's name.

[dmitrykolesnikovich]

always wanted this feature, thanks for finally implementing this

[ZeroAurora]

Great feature!
Are lists only visible to logged-in users?

[TechStudent10]

Yep I think so

[tr7zw]

This really should get fixed (best case a toggle between private/registered/public).

[TechStudent10]

yeah

[kindacoder]

This is amazing. Something i wanted from a long time :)

[dmitrykolesnikovich]

It would be nice to give tags to repositories, maybe even instead of lists. Should be an option at least.

[Bright409]

Sounds Great, plenty wonderful things to be done in HERE. Web3
