The template features a leaderboard layout that ranks contributors based on their contributions, providing a quick snapshot of who’s been most active in the project. But it’s more than just a leaderboard. Click on a contributor’s name, and you’ll see a detailed profile that includes charts tracking their contributions over time. This feature offers a visual representation of each contributor’s involvement and progress in the project.
This template leverages the free GitHub API to retrieve project and contributor statistics. The leaderboard is displayed using a List widget, providing a straightforward and interactive way to view the list of contributors. For visualizing contributions, the template employs Vega-Lite charts, a powerful tool for creating clear and comprehensive data visualizations.
