Inventory of the doubleSlashde GitHub Open Source repositories

In recent months, we have been looking more closely at open source. One angle on this is: What do we offer as open source ourselves? We therefore carried out an inventory of our public GitHub repositories at the end of the year.

 Figures/Facts

Diagrams

I found the question of how continuously we provide open source repositories interesting. I added up the repositories over time and presented them in the following graphic:

Number of repositories

What is interesting about the progression is how continuously we have published repositories. The light blue line would represent linear growth since 2015, which is ~6 repositories per year.

But what do we publish? I have divided the repositories into 5 categories and presented them as follows:

 Categories

I have divided our repositories into the following categories

  1. Examples: Small sample projects
  2. ToolsTools that can be used (standalone)
  3. Kata: Exercises that you can work on in a Coding Dojo, for example, to deepen an aspect of programming
  4. BlogContent uploaded for this blog
  5. TwxExtensionExtensions for the ThingWorx platform

Popularity

The top 5 repositories (based on the number of stars):

  1. 7 stars: KeepTime & DesignPatternKatas
  2. 6 stars: maven-multimodule-coverageOutlookAddIn-Example
  3. 5 stars: scrapy-splash-exercise

Conclusion

I am amazed at how continuously we at doubleSlash are already contributing to open source projects. Presumably even without having actively followed this. In this article, we only looked at contributions that we make available via our GitHub organization.

Take a look overmaybe you'll find something interesting. And maybe you also have something that could help others?
