Hi Community,
With this post I am approaching CTOs, Engineering Managers and Team leads. If your company is paying for GitHub Copilot, you've probably already asked yourself: how my peers are actually using it?
GitHub's built-in dashboards are still in public preview and honestly pretty limited. Meanwhile, when the legacy Copilot Metrics API sunsets on April 2, 2026 many existing external dashboards stop working, because they weren't updated for the new REST API in time.
To anticipate the change, I've built my own and decided to open-source it under MIT license.
It is a lightweight browser app that hits the new GitHub REST API endpoints for Copilot usage metrics, aggregates them per user and per team, and serves a browser-based dashboard with filters and trend hints.
The tech stack is intentionally boring:
- Runtime: Node.js (CommonJS, zero framework)
- Backend: built-in http, fs, https (no Express, no dependencies)
- Frontend: vanilla HTML/CSS/JS (no React/Vue/Angular whatsoever)
- Storage: local data in NDJSON files
No database. No docker. No complex infra. No other authN expect Github classic Personal Access Token.
Repo ships with mocked data so you can explore it without configuration.
The dashboard tracks "interaction turns", amount of changes created in codebase by each developer, overall activity and much more.
Feedback and PRs welcome.
