trnd is a small, friendly app that shows you what is popular on GitHub right now — all inside a simple terminal window on your computer. No programming required.
GitHub is a huge website where people from all over the world share software projects. Every day, thousands of these projects get discovered, starred, and shared. The ones getting the most attention appear on a page called "GitHub Trending."
trnd brings that trending page straight to your computer in a text-based window called a terminal. Instead of opening a browser, clicking through menus, and scrolling through long web pages, you get a single clean list you can move through with your arrow keys.
Think of trnd as a lightweight reading app for discovering open-source software. You open it, you see what is hot today, you filter it down to what interests you, and you save the ones you like for later. Everything stays on your computer and everything is keyboard-driven, so it is quick once you get the hang of it.
Open trnd and immediately see the repositories that are climbing on GitHub right now. The list refreshes as the trending page changes, so you are always looking at something current rather than week-old screenshots or outdated blog posts.
Only interested in Python projects? Or JavaScript? Or Rust? trnd lets you narrow the trending list down to a single programming language so you can skip past everything that is not relevant to you.
Topics are short labels that people attach to their projects, such as "machine-learning," "web-framework," or "command-line." With trnd you can focus on a topic you care about and see only the trending projects tagged that way.
Every project on GitHub includes a README — a description document that explains what the project does and how to use it. trnd lets you read that document directly inside the terminal, so you can judge a project without opening a web browser at all.
When you find something worth coming back to, save it as a bookmark. trnd keeps your saved list handy so you can revisit the projects you liked the next time you open the app.
Getting trnd running takes just a few minutes. Follow these steps in order and you will be browsing trending repositories in no time.

The window that opens is a terminal. It looks plain compared to a normal app, but it works like a simple menu. You do not need to type complex commands — the most common actions are just single key presses.
If you ever lose track of where you are, look at the bottom of the window. trnd shows a short reminder of the available keys there at all times.
A README is the first thing a project author writes to explain their work. It usually covers what the project does, what it looks like, and how someone would use it. Reading it is the fastest way to decide whether a trending repository is worth your attention.
In trnd, highlight any repository and press Enter to view its README inside the terminal. You can scroll through the text with your arrow keys or page keys, then press Escape to return to the trending list exactly where you left it. Nothing is lost and nothing reloads, so you can flip back and forth between several projects while comparing them.
Trending lists move fast. A project that is popular this morning may be gone from the list tomorrow. That is why trnd includes bookmarks: a personal collection of repositories you want to remember.
While a repository is highlighted, use the bookmark key shown in the app's footer to save it. Your bookmarks are stored on your own computer, so they are waiting for you the next time you open trnd. Open the bookmarks view whenever you want to revisit something, and remove items you no longer need to keep the list tidy.
This usually means the file was moved or renamed after downloading. Re-download it from the link above and run it from the folder it landed in, without moving it first.
trnd needs an internet connection to fetch the trending list. Check that your connection is working by opening a website in your browser, then open trnd again.
Windows displays a warning for most software downloaded from the internet, even safe software. Choose the option to continue running the file. If you are unsure, re-download from
