See the top ten most followed GitHub users of every city! This project highlights GitHub usage in Europe. The idea to this project was inspired by codeafrica.org.
The scripts use GitHub API's to search for all GitHub users who have a european country or city listed in their profile. All european cities with a population count above 150.000 are queried (with small exceptions due to errors in the data).
