What is OSSInsight?

Live analytics on GitHub repos, developers and organisations.

Who is OSSInsight best for?

OSSInsight is best for developers and maintainers who want live analytics on any public GitHub repository or developer.

  • Sizing up a GitHub repository

    Look up any public repo to get a dashboard of its stars, commits, pull requests, issues, contributors and community health.

  • Checking a developer's activity

    Enter a GitHub username to see that person's contribution history, starred repos, languages and activity trends.

  • Comparing projects in a field

    Curated collections line up repositories in one technical area, though star-based rankings are paused while the maker repairs a gap in its GitHub data.

  • Building on GitHub data

    Its public API gives the same insight data with no key, at up to 600 requests an hour per IP address.

Why are OSSInsight's star rankings paused?

OSSInsight paused star-based rankings because a change in how GitHub pages its public events feed meant it captured only part of the recent star, pull request and issue events. Older history, repository totals synced from GitHub and commit activity are not affected.
