Show HN: DevIndex – Ranking 50k GitHub developers using a static JSON file

Posted by tobiu on Saturday February 28, 2026 @06:13AM
from the show-hn dept.

Hey HN,I’ve always been frustrated by the lack of an accurate ranking for top open-source contributors on GitHub. The available lists either cap out early or are highly localized, completely missing developers with tens or hundreds of thousands of contributions.So, I built DevIndex to rank the top 50,000 most active developers globally based on their lifetime contributions.From an engineering...

The story just got published by ITNEXT.

Make sure to watch the demo video. The open source implementation is very easy to use and can improve the UX of your web based apps.

Also feel free to try drag&drop inside the calendar demo.

Desktop only as well (until the TouchSensor is ready) and still work in progress:

https://neomjs.github.io/pages/node_modules/neo.mjs/dist/pro...

You can only drag events inside the week view into valid states.

Re:Show HN: Desktop ONLY – Drag&Drop performance inside a multithreadi... on Tuesday August 18, 2020 @09:44AM (#24198436)

Once the TouchSensor is done, I will create a demo for multi screen drag&drop (dragging an in app dialog from one browser window into another).

A blog post will follow.

Re:Show HN: Desktop ONLY – Drag&Drop performance inside a multithreadi... on Tuesday August 18, 2020 @09:41AM (#24198417)

background info:

the demo app is located inside the App Worker.

the drag events get triggered in main, while the handlers live within the App Worker scope.

I was sceptical at first, how the performance for a custom drag&drop implementation would work out.

Best to use Chrome (some polishing left for FF & Safari).

The TouchSensor is next on my todo list.

Re:Desktop Sneak Preview: Creating a Web Based Calendar from Scratch on Saturday July 25, 2020 @04:55PM (#23952336)

The project is deeply inspired by the Google Calendar as well as the native MacOS Calendar.

This is a very early preview version: I started this project a week ago, so please don't expect it to be functional yet. I think it will take 2-3 more weeks to get finished.

Based on neo.mjs, it is multithreaded out of the box.

What you can do already:

Switch the theme.

Open the Settings Container, change settings for the weekly view. Ideally with the Weekly View as the active Card to see the delta updates.

I will add infinite scrolling for all views soon (similar to the DateSelector at the top left).

Drag & Drop for Events, mobile support and creating, editing & removing Events are on the todo list.

You can take a look into the source code here:

https://github.com/neomjs/neo/tree/dev/src/calendar

The Calendar is already pretty extensible & configurable, will add more options on the way.

Feedback appreciated!

Thx & best regards, Tobias

Re:“Hire the best” → A critical perspective on standardised hiring pro... on Saturday July 11, 2020 @02:25PM (#23804409)

I actually hope that some of the ideas get picked up. Might be naive.

Getting visibility / traction for a new OS project is intense these days, especially in case it is "disruptive". Might be too far ahead.

"They're out there and I suspect it would be more enjoyable to work for them". Probably, but hard to find. Most job requests are like "Would you like to help us with Angular, React or Vue?".
