Hey Mike, thanks for your comment. I see where you are coming from. On our end, we do believe some engineers have more experience than others, and we are trying to find a way to identify that. We recognise that our DevRank methodology is imperfect, and we are working daily to improve it. Still, I am very interested in your feedback on this. Can you develop your thoughts here? Thanks in advance 🙏

Ah got it! The position we have is that not all developers are equal in the sense that some have had more impact than others. I agree with you that not every developer always has the right answer. As you said, despite 20-30+ years of experience, anyone can still be wrong. The way we look at it is that some devs have had really meaningful pieces of work in the open-source ecosystem, and in order to find which ones had more impact, you inevitably go into a ranking system. I still understand where you are coming from, and I want to thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts - I really appreciate it. 🙏

Thanks for letting us know about this part:

We use stars as a rough measure of usage. Whilst this method isn't perfect, we recognise it offers insight into the tools favoured by top developers.
