Cool project! It's always good to track your progress as a developer. I like the simple and intuitive layout of the dashboard.
the_next_guy 6 months ago next
I agree with john_doe. It's put together well. Great job! What tools/libraries did you use for building this?
john_doe 6 months ago next
Thanks, the_next_guy! React for the frontend, and Flask for the backend were used.

We're considering adding project tracking in the future - great minds think alike!

Very nice, especially the comparison with industry benchmarks! Did you plan to add support for more languages?

The author wrote: 'Yes, we’ll add more benchmarks and language support in the near future!' Thanks for sharing!
helpful_dev 6 months ago next
What metrics do you use to create the industry benchmarks? Can you provide a reference?
happy_coderr 6 months ago next
Many tools use a similar approach by relying on public data sources. Thumbs up for transparency.

Does it support tracking completion of side projects? I see the focus on the dashboard is Pull Requests. Would appreciate that feature.
code_master 6 months ago next
Yes, it does support tracking side projects! Check out the settings for enabling/disabling features.

Do you think having too many checked features may become overwhelming or decrease focus on core skills?
anonymous 6 months ago next
It is possible to adjust the visibility of features in the settings, which helps manage complexity.
b_the_developer 6 months ago next
@rewrite_king: I think it's essential to customize the dashboard and decide what features cater to your needs.
random_coder 6 months ago next
I couldn't agree more! Thanks for the clarification.
mrs_developer 6 months ago next
I'm glad you like it, random_coder! Thanks for showing your support.

Better than most commercially available tools I've seen. Keep up the excellent work.
mrs_developer 6 months ago prev next
@helpful_dev: The industry benchmarks are based on data from GitHub and Stack Overflow surveys.

Very valuable information to have consistent data-driven growth! Looking forward to more features.
the_learner 6 months ago prev next
Does it work with private repositories or just public ones? Thanks!
helpful_admin 6 months ago next
The tool does support private repos! Just need to connect it to your GitHub/Bitbucket account.
tech_headlines 6 months ago prev next
Neat project! Do you have any plans on turning this into a useful service for smaller teams?
code_master 6 months ago next
@tech_headlines: Yes, that's on the roadmap! Teams can look forward to group analytics and other collaborative features.

Curious if you are going to implement a Leaderboard for users who author a lot of PRs in open-source projects?
code_maven 6 months ago next
The author responded: 'That is a fantastic idea! It's not on the immediate roadmap, but it's worth considering.'
goto_next 6 months ago prev next
I noticed a minor bug, where in rare cases a widget would glitch. I submitted it via GitHub.
helpful_admin 6 months ago next
Thank you, goto_next! We appreciate your support. I'll look into that issue shortly.
mrs_developer 6 months ago next
@someuser: Thank you for your kind words! Knowing our work helps others is a great feeling.
johndreamer 6 months ago prev next
I noticed some mentions of other tools like CodeFactor, CodeSignal, and Codacy. Do you consider these competitors?
code_sensei 6 months ago next
Interesting point, johndreamer. Our tool has similar functionality but offers a more personalized approach.
johndreamer 6 months ago next
Ah, I see your point now, code_sensei. Thanks for differentiating!
code_guru 6 months ago next
Now I'm considering integrating this into my setup. How's the performance for larger projects?
mrs_developer 6 months ago next
@code_guru: The dashboard has been somewhat tested with medium-size projects, but we would like to learn more about your experience as we iron out the kinks.
code_whiz 6 months ago next
Are there API endpoints or plans for this feature? I think it would be useful for integrating into other tools.
code_guardian 6 months ago next
There is currently a REST API available but not well-documented or widely exposed. Improving API documentation is in the pipeline.
coding_rebel 6 months ago next
For writing custom integrations, I found the API useful even in its current state.
gamma_life 6 months ago prev next
Can't wait to see the improvements! I just set up my dashboard and love the sleek design.
happy_developer 6 months ago next
Agreed. The personal touch and customizability are nice additions.
somerandomusername 6 months ago next
Everything is so neat and organized. The idea of tracking growth is inspiring.
alicecodes 6 months ago next
Thanks, somerandomusername! It's awesome to inspire other devs.
the_tester 6 months ago prev next
I've seen dashboard and leaderboard combos. Is that something you would consider?
coding_genius 6 months ago next
Great idea, the_tester! We will definitely take note of that.
helpful_user 6 months ago next
Adding more 'Challenges' or side quests to stretch ability could be great, echoing the idea from the_tester.
