Which trends are useful to track/visualise?

[iteles]

We will have a lot of raw data on our hands once Hansel is up and running. The value is in determining what can be learned from that data.

Strongly related to #21.

For a personal/individual profile, I think the following information would be interesting to include:

• Profile photo
• Username
• No. of followers (post-MVP, this would include an up arrow - in green - or down arrow - in red - to show movement in the last 24 hours)
• No. of stars on my repos (again, post-MVP with an arrow indication of increase or decrease)
• No. issues assigned to me (this one will be interesting to test because a lot of people we know actually don't use assigned issues
• No. following (less important info, essentially a link to access people you follow)
• No. starred repos (again, more of a link than anything else)
• List of issues assigned to me

Post-MVP

• 7 day streak (showing square colours for last 7 days)
• Where am I spending my time (top two languages I use - plays into dwyl)?
• Top starred repos (of mine)
• Repos I actually want to be known for (sometimes not actually the most popular ones from years ago but more recent interests)

Some other interesting things to follow in the future:

• No. repos actually using tests Should we check repos for automated testing? #35
• No. contributions to the OSS community
• Consistent coder vs short burst coder?
• What have you been spending your time on recently - i.e. what are you interests right now?
• Does a project historically accept contributions? (open vs merged PRs, including how recent the merge was)
• Which are the most collaborative projects?
• How recently was a person active?
• Members of organisations with more than x thousand stars
• Location breakdown of all github users/org users
• Who are the rising stars of github?
• Who is worth following?
• Which are the most interesting repos to follow?
