Show HN: Open-Source H-Index

[vood]

Have you heard of Hirsch index for academic researchers and publications?

We adapted the algorithm for open source contributors. Fun project!

Open Source Hirsch Index is equal to N if a developer has at least N projects, each with at least N commits from the developer, and each project has at least N stars.

Hirsch ≥ 27 is like winning a Nobel Prize—only a few hundred people reach this level. Hirsch ≥ 13 puts you in the top 10,000, which is on par with earning an Olympic medal. Hirsch ≥ 8 places you in the top 100,000, where you’ll find people making a serious impact in tech—think billionaires and CTOs of unicorn companies. Hirsch ≥ 3 lands you in the top 1 million, the marathoners of the industry.
