Notes on docker/compose

How many stars does docker/compose have?
GitHub currently reports 38,833 stars for docker/compose, with about 1,038 of them added in the last 90 days.
How fast is compose growing?
docker/compose gained about 1,038 stars over the last 90 days of its history (about 635 in the last 30) — figures are approximate for older repos, whose star history is downsampled. That's faster than its lifetime average growth pace.
Is compose still active?

Light and dark variants, alt text, and one provenance line. Provenance is text in your README, never baked into the image URL, so the chart stays cacheable.

Paste it into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, or any coding agent with your checkout open. It carries the measured numbers, the exact snippets, and the rules — including replacing an existing star-history widget in place rather than stacking a second chart under it.
