In plain English

GitHubDaily is a curated Chinese-language newsletter and repository that shares high-quality, interesting, and useful open-source projects discovered on GitHub. The README is written entirely in Chinese (with an English description available in a separate file). The project has been running since October 2015 and has shared over 10,000 open-source projects across categories including AI tools, developer utilities, learning tutorials, programming libraries, online services, and more. The repository is not software you run, it is an organized, annually-updated list of project recommendations grouped by topic. Each year's collection is maintained in a separate file, and the current README contains the 2025 roundup. Categories include AI tools (covering everything from document OCR, text-to-speech, and code agents to resume matchers, comic generators, and virtual try-on models), development tools, browser automation, machine learning tutorials, online services, and productivity apps. The curation philosophy is inspired by a quote from open-source developer TJ Holowaychuk: learning by reading other people's code is one of the best ways to grow. GitHubDaily operates as a public service to help Chinese-speaking developers stay current with trending projects without having to scroll through GitHub trending pages manually. You would use this repository when you want a trusted, human-curated digest of notable GitHub projects organized by category, particularly if you read Chinese and want to stay current with active open-source development across AI, frontend, backend, and developer tooling. There is no programming language associated with the repository, it is purely documentation. The project also distributes its recommendations via WeChat, Weibo, Zhihu, and X (formerly Twitter).
