Description
Current Behavior
The "star the repo" button on this page is too yellow, too redundant of other actions that visitors can take on the page. Let's have a novel point of engagement for visitors here.
Desired Behavior
- Mandatory: The button shouldn't be styled as a rounded rentable (like our other buttons), but should be unique to this special call to action.
- Possibly: Include a ⭐ icon
- Ideal, but not required: Mention of the number of stars
