GitHub Icon with Stars

If you want to change the GitHub icon to a different one that includes repository stars, you will need the stargazers.data.ts and StarUs.vue files, along with some changes to your index.ts and package.json files.

Change repository information

# stargazers.data.ts
const REPO = "LuxDL/DocumenterVitepress.jl"; # change to "u/repo"

and here

# StarUs.vue
const props = defineProps({
  repoUrl: {
    type: String,
    default: "https://github.com/LuxDL/DocumenterVitepress.jl" # change to "url repo"
  }
});

And make sure you have the following highlighted elements:

index.ts

// .vitepress/theme/index.ts
import { h } from 'vue'
import type { Theme } from 'vitepress'
import DefaultTheme from 'vitepress/theme'
import VersionPicker from "../../components/VersionPicker.vue"
import StarUs from '../../components/StarUs.vue'
import AuthorBadge from '../../components/AuthorBadge.vue'
import Authors from '../../components/Authors.vue'
import { enhanceAppWithTabs } from 'vitepress-plugin-tabs/client'
import './style.css'

export default {
  extends: DefaultTheme,
  Layout() {
    return h(DefaultTheme.Layout, null, {
      'nav-bar-content-after': () => h(StarUs), 
    })
  },
  enhanceApp({ app, router, siteData }) {
    enhanceAppWithTabs(app);
    app.component('VersionPicker', VersionPicker);
    app.component('AuthorBadge', AuthorBadge)
    app.component('Authors', Authors)
  }
} satisfies Theme
