How we count
We match project tags against 99,639 skills from 7,206 public GitHub repos (refreshed 2026-10-18). A skill built for another framework or language is left out, and so is a skill below our relevance floor. The picks on this page come from the ranked list for these tags. We favor broad practice skills over single-task ones. Licenses are shown as each repo declares them. Read a skill before you install it.
