GitHub Chinese Top Charts (in Chinese, 中文排行榜) is a curated set of rankings of GitHub repositories whose primary content is in Chinese. The stated purpose, from the README's tagline, is to help people discover good Chinese-language projects so they can absorb knowledge and experience without a language barrier. It is not software you install, it is a directory hosted as a GitHub repository, where the data files are Markdown ranking pages. The way it works is by splitting Chinese repositories into two broad buckets and three time-based views. The two buckets are "Software" (actual code projects) and "Knowledge" (resources such as books, tutorials, and reference material). The three views are an overall all-time chart, a growth chart that tracks repositories climbing fastest, and a "new and notable" chart for recently created standouts. Each view is further broken down by primary programming language, so you can browse, for example, only Chinese JavaScript projects or only Chinese Go projects. The repository's documentation pages describe the inclusion rules, the project's definition of what counts as a "Chinese" repository, and a milestone log. You would use this if you read Chinese and want a shortcut to the most-starred or fastest-growing Chinese projects in a particular language ecosystem, for example a developer looking for Chinese-language tutorials, or someone tracking the Chinese open-source scene from outside it. The README also links to a sibling project, GitHub English Top Charts, for those who have outgrown the Chinese list. The repository is labeled as primarily Java, although as a list-based project that label refers to whatever code generates the rankings rather than to a user-facing application.
