Fork of A Visual History of Stamen Open Source Contributors
This visualization displays Stamen open source contributor activity over time, with each smooth, colored layer representing one of the top 100 contributors by commit count. Layer thickness corresponds to weekly commit volume, and vertical ordering follows the chronological introduction of each repository. The data comes from a GitHub gist of commit records, aggregated into weekly counts and smoothed using `blur` from the array-blur library. Rendering is done with React and D3 (including `d3.stack`, `d3.stackOffsetWiggle`, and `d3.area`), with interactive SVG paths linking to the contributing repositories.
AI-generated descriptionThis is an experiment in visualizing Stamen's Open Source activity over the years. Each layer is one of the top 100 contributors (by commit count) in a Stamen Open Source repository. The thickness of each layer is the number of commits per week with smoothing applied. This visualization uses a modified Streamgraph technique where the layer order is determined by the time of the first commit. So, as you read the labels from bottom to top, that corresponds to the history of when each repository was introduced.
