What you’ll learn from this GitHub Overview Dashboard template:

Connect your GitHub account and learn:

  • What changes have been made to a specific project? Track the number of changes that have been made to a specific project in a given period in comparison to previous dates. This data is useful to all project contributors as they might want to know how many changes were made before the final result, who made them, and why they were made.
  • How do I check the status of a repository? Check the status of your project file(s) by tracking key metrics that’ll enable you to make quick informed decisions.
  • How many open (and closed) issues do we have? View the number of issues with open or closed status in a specific repository over time. Use this information to track the overall productivity of your team and/or a specific project.
  • Do we have any pending pull requests? Track how many changes have been suggested by members of your team for a specific project. See how many have been accepted and merged into a branch and those that are still open and waiting approval.
  • What’s our average pull request close time? See how much time it takes for a decision to be made on a contributor’s submitted pull request. This information is important due to the fact that it lets you know how healthy your project is and how responsive your team is to external help.
  • Who are our top contributors? See the most active contributors to your project in the last 30 days. This is a great way to find out the contributors that have filed the most pulled requests during a given time period.
