How did you get your first 1,000 GitHub Stars?

Launched on Product Hunt last week, Ultracite, a fast, automated code formatting and linting tool for JavaScript, just hit 1,000 stars on GitHub.

The Product Hunt effect?

S/O to maker @haydenbleasel for the continuous great work 👏👏

Curious if the community has any pro tips and best practices for growing an open-source project?

I built something genuinely useful, kept the repo clean, and wrote a killer README. Shared on Hacker News, Reddit, and Twitter to spark early interest. Engaged with every user and shipped fast based on feedback.
