GitCities is a visualization concept that attempts to capture the dynamic nature of the activity on GitHub. Here I’ve used city as a base metaphor because cities, in my opinion, are the best examples of dynamism. For each city there are areas that see more traffic during different times of the day and different days of the week. There are opinions and ideologies that resonate within the residents. Each and every city in our world has a character of its own and the best way to know a city is to visit it.
The mapping is done using following relations:
- If an organization is considered like a city then,
- Each project could be a building and
- Each developer/contributor will be a citizen.
For this POC I have used Mozilla's public repositories and contributors on GitHub.
- Three.js (A beautiful library for 3D programming)
