The dashboard provides real-time statistics, interactive charts, and detailed growth metrics.

🔧 How It Works

1. Data Collection: A Go script uses the GitHub API to fetch commit history and file content for ee/maintained-apps/outputs/apps.json without cloning the repository
2. Data Processing: The script generates a continuous daily CSV file with app counts
3. Visualization: An HTML file with embedded Chart.js creates interactive charts
4. Automation: GitHub Actions runs daily at 12:00 PM UTC to update the data
