Community-driven stability verdicts for npm packages. Because latest doesn't mean greatest.

---

What is this?

IsItStable answers one question: "Should I update?"

Every tracked package version gets a community verdict — YES ✅ (ship it) or NO 🔥 (hold off). Verdicts are backed by evidence: referenced GitHub issues, download stats, and community votes via GitHub reactions.

How it works

1. Version issues are created in this repo with the format [v2026.4.23] PackageName
2. Each issue contains a verdict (YES/NO), humorous comment, and evidence links
3. You vote by reacting on the issue: 👍 = stable, 👎 = unstable
4. The website reads from GitHub Issues via API — no database needed
