Show HN: A Spotify-like yearly recap for devs using GitHub contributions (github.com)

36 points by dhruvagga ↗ HN
Recently, I came across Spotify's wrapped showing cool insights from my the music I heard in 2023.

Last week we casually started discussing about our cards (the Spotify highlights) in our office and then we wondered if we can look at our development journey the same way in 2023. That was it, everyone put their hacker hats on, started building Unwrapped to reflect on the dev journey just using your Github contributions!

Hope you also find joy in reflecting back at your journey in 2023! The best part - we made it open source . Can't wait to hear your feedback! Contributions are welcome :)

Love the idea & execution of this! It was so much fun to look back on the year on Github instead of Spotify!

Love the product. Loved the design and how easy it is to share your unwrapped with others. Kudos for making it opensource.

Hey all! I'm one of the makers of Unwrapped, really appreciate the support so far, and of course, any feedback or direct contributions would be super appreciated. In terms of code, or design!

Try it out here: https://unwrapped.dev

Isn’t all the information public, it seems to require additional permissions from github so I abandoned?

Or optionally it would be nice if it could do a more bare unwrapping based on public only info.

Hey pacifika, This includes data from your private repos to show a more complete picture for those that may have a lot of closed source contribs.

I totally get your hesitation to try it out, hence the link to the repo. You'd notice that your token isn't actually stored/sent to any database, or other internal system. It's kept as an HTTP-only secure cookie, encrypted using an RSA key-pair, on your browser only.

Happy to hear more feedback, or receive any contributions to support an public-only version of this.

This one is so cool! And congratulations on the PH launch as well. We did something similar yesterday with 1000 days of code at a glance. You can check it - https://peerlist.io/github-recap

But I must say I loved the way unwrapped.dev is built! Kudos to the team

Heyy Yogini! Thanks a lot. All the best to you too and to the mission we both are on :)

Nice! Really brings the holiday feels! Do you know of a recap but for a repo?
dhruvagga
Thanks @furtugoth! Great thought. Nothing comes to my mind, but we should try using Unwrapped and get back :)
