As the founder of a quite similarly named company, this looks great :) Not sure if you're looking for a job Katherine, but if you are my email is in my profile!
This felt genuine. But I must admit, asking someone launching something if they're looking for a job rubbed me the wrong way. :shrug:
By all early metrics, this project looks like it can become extremely popular and healthy. If you switch to the impact view in the following: https://public-001.gitsense.com/insights/github/repos?q=wind... And look at the impact chart at the bottom, it has all the signs of a healthy/popular project. A high number of contributors in Zone 3 indicates strong interest. A decent number of contributors in Zone 2, indicates…
Well firstly, it's common courtesy to state it upfront if you have a conflict of interest (E.g. you work for the company being discussed or you're linking something of your own). Secondly, I suspect some people may not like the idea of these kind of metrics.
Why is this easier than opening a text editor?
But to have something like this open along with that template would be really cool (and probably a resource hog to the editor/IDE, heh!)

I didn't downvote, but you could do this kind of analysis on any link to a github repo and I don't think people want it to become a habit.

I'm old enough to remember personal websites being a thing, before everyone and their company went over on that Face Site. I had a personal site back than which IIRC 2010 or 2011-ish I moved to the domain I mentioned, and, at the time, I kept updating the site somewhat regularly (before than I had a .de domain, which was really darn cheap and the site was in German only). The .so NIC "adjusted" the price IIRC around…
There's nothing ad-hominem in my response, I just question your assessment that 80 euros a year is forcing you to "pay through the nose". Describing these events the way you do makes it sound as if you're being blackmailed or something. You're not. The Somalian government have the right to handle the .so domains however they please. If they demand that people are either Somali or otherwise pay a fee of 80 euros, ther…
> Some years back, I used to be the proud owner of "libgoliath.so", but then they suddenly decided to hike the price to IIRC Euro 80,- per year (either that, or prove that I have a Somalian citicenship). So I dropped that.
I don't see any entitlement here at all, just a person calling a ripoff a ripoff.

I can't tell what region on the page you are referring to with Zone 1, 2, and 3. There are four quadrants and they're not numbered. I didn't downvote, but you could do this kind of analysis on any link to a github repo and I don't think people want it to become a habit.

1. Linking other pages is buggy. Sometimes Readme autocompletes the page name and sometimes it doesn't. In general, the UI feels a little buggy and that's a big issue given that it's the entire reason I'm using your product.
2. I couldn't figure out how to make my docs publically available during the trial. I still don't know if this is because actually making your docs public is a paid feature or if I couldn't find the right button.
3. I desperately needed an export to pdf and that wasn't available during the trial despite the promise on the home page that the trial includes all features.
4. My cofounder thought the price was a little high given how easily we could handle docs ourselves.
There were some things I really liked:
1. I love the way you can embed API keys in the docs based on the reader's identify.
2. The API related features also look cool, although they aren't relevant for us.
Lastly, I'm not a customer in the end but one feature that I would have paid for (at the time when I was still evaluating this) is the ability to password protect docs and allow access only to specific people you invite. (Not paid users on your own team though. Just people you invite as readers.) We're still mostly in stealth mode but we do have prospects trying out our software regularly and would like to send them a nonpublic version of the docs that they can see. (Hence my desire to export to pdf, but private docs would be better than pdf.)

In the impact view, the zones are shown in the top left quadrant. I guess I could find a way to make it more obvious.
It's still very unclear that the left quadrant is a mini-map of the other three quadrants. I recommend just graying out the top left and writing "Zone 1 - High Impact" somewhere inside the quadrant it describes.
