As someone actively contributing to DevTrack, here's my honest take on what would actually get used vs what sounds cool on paper: Top priority for me: Public profile page — This is the one. A shareable link to your stats is instantly useful for portfolios, resumes, and README profiles. Low friction, high visibility. Builds organic traffic for DevTrack too. Language breakdown — Super useful for tracking growth over time. Especially for contributors working across multiple repos in programs like GSSoC or Hacktoberfest where your language mix shifts week to week. Would use but lower urgency: Review activity — Underrated metric. PRs reviewed and comments left show collaboration quality, not just output volume. Would love to see this surface on the public profile too. Goal notifications — Browser push > email for me. Email gets ignored, a push notification when you're already coding hits at the right moment. Nice to have eventually: Streak tracking — Fun and motivating but becomes a vanity metric fast if not paired with substance (e.g. showing what you committed, not just that you did). Multi-account support — Useful for people with work + personal GitHub accounts but probably a smaller audience. Would prioritize the above first. My suggested order: Public profile → Language breakdown → Review activity → Goal notifications → Streak tracking → Multi-account Happy to contribute to whichever gets prioritized next! |

DevTrack is still early — now is the best time to shape where it goes.
A few directions being considered:
Drop a comment with what you would actually use. Upvote ideas others have posted. Helps prioritize what gets built.
