Overview

The project is a unique tool designed to track and visualize statistics of the gatsbyjs/gatsby GitHub repository over the last two weeks. Although now considered deprecated, this unnofficial website showcases data like the number of open/closed issues and pull requests through elegant charts, all powered by Gatsby and a GitHub Action. It's an interesting look into the activity of a popular repository, presenting the data in a visual format that can be advantageous for developers and tech enthusiasts who want to keep an eye on project trends.
