creating an extension for data visualization of github accounts

it would be really interesting to:

• create a browser based extension for data visualization of GitHub accounts

---

it would be interesting if it could provide in-depth data and not only some superficial analysis. the following frameworks could be used in its implementation:

• google tensorflow
• uber deck.gl

---

it should be smooth and it should run in any browser

Can you explain better? Actually the profiles on github as already a data visualization

i mean the degree of depth of the tools for data visualization available both in and outside of github are not efficient:

• you cannot measure quality of commit and PRs
• you cannot measure real depth of contribution, as many of them only follow simple statistical data

Instead, I think it would be relevant to:

• to use tensorflow to match user profiles (i.e.: technology hunters for experimentation, contributors to individual projects, contributors to community projects, reviewers, spammers, what kind of contributions, people follow users for the sake of exposing them to technologies, etc.)
• to use tensorflow to analyze quality of contributions in a meaningful way (by analyzing quality of code, depth of programming, etc.)
• to analyze the kind of way as users use github
• etc.

---

furthermore, having it quite sophisticated in terms of UI. namely:

• doing it with webgl, perharps using google deck.gl, and really having high end graphics optimized to run on any device, and even adapted to vr, ar, xr, etc.

Maybe for that is better a service with an extension, tensorflow require a server and an extension is not the best place for that like for analyze quality of code.

well anyways i just wanted to share it with mozilla, because I think it's a relatively interesting thing an I am more fond of DIWO then DIY

[Mte90]

I am actually using codacy for that that is free for open source projects but the object of this ticket is probably over then the purpose of this repo that is to gather idea for new extension made by the community.

well i am trying it. and although it's an awesome tool it think we are still talking about different things
