What stands out
A quick read of the recorded project description.
Stack is Vite + React, with TailwindCSS for building the UI
Supports anchoring the UI to a specified position on the page, inspired by wxt's shadow-root implementation
Loads script content on demand to reduce impact on the target page
Declarative URL pattern matching that takes effect after a single configuration
Automated version releases via GitHub Actions, with an installation entry on Greasy Fork
Template Details
starter-monkey is a starter template for userscript development, hosted on GitHub at yunsii/starter-monkey and licensed under MIT. It uses vite-plugin-monkey to bring Vite's build pipeline into the userscript context; the stack is Vite + React, and the template type is starter.
The README lists capabilities including: React combined with TailwindCSS for UI development; page anchoring to place the UI, inspired by wxt's shadow-root implementation; on-demand loading to avoid polluting the page; declarative configuration for URL pattern matching; and automated version releases via GitHub Actions. The template also provides an installation entry on Greasy Fork and a demo script.
The README mentions existing projects built on this template, such as Bob Monkey (a collection of userscripts that enhances the GitHub and DeepWiki experience). The FAQ records two known topics: missing styles for overlay components when integrating shadcn/ui, and a reference commit for switching to the Ant Design component library. The repository also includes AGENTS.md for agents participating in the repository to read. The template does not provide specific framework version numbers in the README; for actual dependencies, refer to the repository's dependency manifest.

How this score is calculated
Our heuristic uses license records (up to 30), a demo link (12), a preview (10), stars (15), recorded maintenance (15), description completeness (8), feature records (5) and classification data (5). It is not a code, security or performance test, or a Google score. A link does not establish tested functionality.
What to verify for this project

A demo link is listed. Check it with your own content and viewport sizes; its presence does not confirm that forms, authentication or payments work.
The catalog identifies Vite as the primary stack. Check the actual dependency manifest and lockfile for versions and hosting requirements. These notes use recorded metadata, not a code audit or a deployment test.
