Re-introduce Docs originally taken from README #335

@MoralCode

Description

@MoralCode

In #2 this section of useful docs was intentionally removed from the readme and was left in a note to be moved to a better place (readthedocs)

this issue documents this so it can be done at some later time

We do this in a variety of ways, one of which is doing all our own data collection in house. We currently collect data from a few main sources:


1. Raw Git commit logs (commits, contributors)
2. GitHub's API (issues, pull requests, contributors, releases, repository metadata)
3. The Linux Foundation's [Core Infrastructure Initiative](https://www.coreinfrastructure.org/) API (repository metadata)
4. [Succinct Code Counter](https://github.com/boyter/scc), a blazingly fast Sloc, Cloc, and Code tool that also performs COCOMO calculations

i think we should also add a 5th entry to mention scorecard analysis
