Trendshift → GitHub button

Adds a ↗ GitHub button next to each repository listed on
trendshift.io so you can open the matching repo on
GitHub, in a new tab, with no extra steps.

On Trendshift, each repo is shown as owner/repo (for example
pewdiepie-archdaemon/odysseus), but the link takes you to Trendshift's own
page (/repositories/43167), not to GitHub. This script reads that
owner/repo and builds https://github.com/owner/repo directly.

✨ What it does

• Inserts a ↗ GitHub button to the right of each repository in the list.
• Clicking it opens https://github.com/owner/repo in a new tab.
• Works with content loaded dynamically (scrolling, client-side navigation)
  thanks to a MutationObserver.
• Keeps you on Trendshift: clicking the button does not trigger the card link.

🚀 Installation

1. Install a userscript manager:
   Tampermonkey
   Violentmonkey.
2. Click Install this script on this page.
3. Confirm the installation in the manager.
4. Open trendshift.io and you'll see the button next
   to each repo.

⚠️ Important on Chrome / Edge (Tampermonkey)

Recent versions of Chrome and Edge require enabling a permission for userscripts
to run. If no button appears:

1. Go to chrome://extensions (or edge://extensions).
2. Open the Tampermonkey card.
3. Enable "Allow User Scripts".
4. Reload trendshift.io.

This step is not needed on Firefox.

🖱️ Usage

There is nothing to configure. Once installed, browse Trendshift as usual and
use the ↗ GitHub button on any repository

🔒 Privacy and permissions

• Runs only on https://trendshift.io/*.
• @grant none: no privileged manager APIs a
• It does not collect, send or store any data. Everything happens in your
  browser.
• It makes no network requests of its own; it just adds a regular link to
  GitHub.

🧩 Compatibility

🛠️ How it works (technical)

• Selects the links a[href^="/repositories/"].
• Filters only those whose text matches the owner/repo pattern
  (/^[A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9._-]*\/[A-Za-z0-9._-]+$/), ignoring icons or other
  links to the same page.
• Marks each processed link with data-ts-gh-done to avoid duplicate buttons.
• The button uses position: relative; z-inde ::after { inset: 0 }overlay that Trendshift places over the cards, andstopPropagation()` so the click does not a

📝 Notes

• If Trendshift changes the repo text format, the button might stop appearing in
  some cases; open a report and I'll adjust it.
