    With the rise of Open Source Program Offices in the industry, we are observing a rise in teams dedicated to upstream open source contributions. As this often represents the result of a large investment from a company, it is important to be able to quantify and monitor the team’s contributions over time. To answer this, we created a tool that tracks the open source contributions from a list of users. The tool uses Perceval and the GitHub API to track pull requests, issues, comments, reviews, commits authored, and commits merged. The dashboard then displays a summary of the team’s contributions, any user’s contributions as well as a series of charts.
