Jev repos blowing up right now. I made a list of the repos people are using to build with jev. 👇

Jon Kraayenbrink posted the eleven Jev repositories climbing GitHub fastest: a generative UI framework, a browser agent, a Claude Code compaction plugin, a trading bot, a desktop controller, a code reviewer, a Mario player, two MCP servers, a Codex model router, and the awesome list that tracks the rest. Every one of them is on this site with its own page, so the list below goes to the write-ups rather than straight back to GitHub.

The eleven have one shape in common. Each replaced a question that had a fixed, enumerable answer — which element to click, which model to route to, which line to cut, which controller button to press — with a typed Jev call, and left the prose to a language model or to no model at all. That is why the list skews to plugins, routers and agents rather than to products: the work of the last week has been people finding the repeated decision inside a tool they already use and pulling it out.

Star counts are the honest caveat. The numbers on this page are read from the GitHub API on the date printed with them, and the fast movers here gained thousands in days, so they are a snapshot and not a ranking that holds. jev-ultrafast, fast-jev-compaction, jev-trader, jev-review, typesafe-mario, jev-mcp, typesafe-mcp and jev-codex-router were all created within days of the Jev launch; json-render and agent-desktop are older projects that added a Jev path.

Two names in the list are not builds in the same sense. json-render is Vercel Labs' generative UI framework, where the Jev composer sits behind an experimental flag rather than carrying the project. awesome-jev is a list, not a program — the companion index to this directory.
