This time, I've decided to -create some visualizations (probably 8) of the various communities using -[[http://github.com/][GitHub]]. I'm happy with the result, and will soon -start to publish the maps (statics and interactives) with some analyses. -I'm publishing two previews: the Perl community and the european -developers. These are not final results. The colors, fonts, and layout -may change. But the structure of the graphs will be the same. All the -data was collected using the [[http://developer.github.com/][GitHub -API]]. - -Each node on the graph represents a developer. When a developer -"follows" another developer on GitHub, a link between them is created. -The color on the Perl community map represent the countries of the -developer. One of the most visible things on this graph is that the -japanese community is tighly connected and shares very little contact -with the foreign developers. miyagawa obviously acts as a glue between -japanese and worldwide Perl hackers. - -The second graph is a little bit more complex. It represents the -European developers on GitHub. Here the colors represent the languages -used by the developers. It appears that ruby is by far the most -represented language on GitHub, as it dominates the whole map. Perl is -the blue cluster at the bottom of the map, and the green snake is... -Python. - -Thanks to [[http://code.google.com/p/tinyaml/][bl0b]] for his -suggestions :) |
