Fast, offline OCR for Node.js & C++. PP-OCRv6 with Core ML / WebGPU hardware acceleration — recognize text in images with confidence scores & coordinates. npm: @arcships/light-ocr
arcships/light-ocr has 648 stars and gained +141 of them in the last 30 days, a 28% change. It is written in C++, grouped under media, released under Apache-2.0. A merged pull request waits a median of 3m from opening to merge, measured on 54 pull requests. Last pushed on 8 Oct 2026.
Star growth per time window: stars gained, growth percentage, the star count at the start of the period, and whether the figure was measured from our own two-hour intraday snapshots, daily snapshots, or GitHub’s rebuilt star history, for the last 6 hours, the last 12 hours, today, the last 7 days, the last 30 days, and the last year. A period with no current measurement is left blank rather than shown as zero.

A period with no current measurement is left blank: a delta needs a measurement at both ends of the period. The 6- and 12-hour periods need two intraday measurements exactly that far apart, the day-and-longer periods need snapshots on both dates, and the last year also needs star history from a year ago, which we keep for one year.

Stars: 509 when it entered our index, 648 on the last capture we hold (28 Oct 2026), so +139 in that span. That span is our own measurement window, not a claim about what happened before it.
It has never shown up on GitHub Trending while we were watching, so there is no arrival to compare against.
