We are maintaining an open-source React framework for building CRUD apps easily.
You can take a look: https://github.com/refinedev/refine
We’ve reached 5.4K stars on GitHub, but more work still needs to be done! I'll write a detailed article about how we did it in the next months. However, this short post will cover only quick tips.
I'll dive deep into the sections below in the next articles
1. Post updates regularly - Twitter and Linkedin
2. Engage with your community - We offered 7/24 support on Discord
3. Offer valuable content- Published Content on Devto and Hashnode and refine Blog
4. Be active on other platforms like Reddit and Hackernews
5. Prepare yourself very well for the Product Hunt Launch
6. Keep your project updated
7. Have a clear Roadmap for your project
8. Make it easy to contribute - Encourage contributions from others
9. Be responsive to issues and pull requests
10. Prepare good README and Documentation.
If you have any other tips, feel free to share them in the comments!

Thank you for sharing your strategies 🙏
Thanks for tips
Thank you too!
I would definitely love to hear your thoughts on the documentation and README. I feel like I'm lacking in that area when it comes to uploads. I look forward to the next post about it.
I think the most important way is having documentation and README. I'll write an article about it.
Thank you 🎯
Good job Necati, if that possible I would like to join your Discord group.thanks.

Thank you for good suggestions 🚀
Do you get a prize when you reach 6k?
When I saw your question
at first I thought you ask because you don't know how does the star works but
according to your comment it seems you already know about it.
May I know why did you ask such as question ?
It was an attempt at sarcasm - possibly too subtle.
Nice to see someone else from Thailand here! 🙂
It's always nice to know that people like what you have created by starred it
@necatiozmen Indeed stars are not the ultimate metrics for top quality but it's usually a great achievement that is not at everybody's reach. I think we should acknowledge that.
P.S: everybody has an opinion in tech, but I would certainly never use likes to bookmark something, cause I have bookmarks in my browser and other software to save links.
Of course, if you want to use likes for something else and send wrong signals, nothing will prevent you from doing it, no judgement.
I agree with you
Stars are a bookmarking feature, just like in browsers where the icon for bookmarking is also a star - you can even organise your GitHub stars into lists - a further organisational feature. Stars doesn't necessarily represent a 'like' - GitHub isn't a social network. I've starred at least 5 repos in the past to use as examples of bad code for teaching juniors!
I agree with you on "Stars doesn't necessarily represent a 'like". Maybe some developers using it as a bookmark. However, they may be bookmarking because they like the repository:)
By the way, I use stars for bookmarking too.. But stars means a lot for open source project..
