The Idea
Developer portfolios can be boring. I wanted to create a fun, engaging way for developers to visualize their open-source contributions using pop culture.
The Solution
A Django-based Analysis Engine that fetches a user’s public GitHub data (commits, PRs, stars) and maps them to superhero traits.
- The Algorithm:
- High Commit Frequency + Speed → The Flash / Quicksilver.
- High Accuracy + Bug Fixes → Captain America.
- Massive Codebase Management → Iron Man.
- Tech Stack: Consumed the GitHub REST API to aggregate stats in real-time and render a “Hero Card” for the user.
Key Features
- Profile Gamification: Turned boring contribution graphs into shareable social content.
- API Integration: Handled rate limiting and complex JSON parsing from GitHub’s data stream.
