Account and login
Login methods
Section titled “Login methods”GitStars.io supports passwordless login:
- Magic link by email
- Google SSO
- GitHub SSO
Magic link login sends a one-time verification link. There is no password to remember or rotate.
Watchlist access
Section titled “Watchlist access”The Watchlist menu item appears only for signed-in users. Repository save icons remain visible to all visitors. If a signed-out visitor clicks save, GitStars.io sends them to login and can attach the selected repositories to the signed-in account after verification.
API keys
Section titled “API keys”Signed-in users can create API keys from the user menu. API keys are optional for public API calls and provide higher rate limits than anonymous traffic.
Session behavior
Section titled “Session behavior”GitStars.io keeps a browser session after login. API keys are separate credentials for API clients and can be revoked without signing out of the web app.
