We believe an engineer’s work can tell a story. This work, from commits and source code contains a wealth of information not only immediately valuable for ourselves but also to the larger engineering community to share, discuss, and most importantly learn from. After all, all software engineers ultimately do is write and commit code. Our commits and source code have it all: the languages and libraries we use, how much we show off by using fancy language features, what math we like, who we work with, how much we loath unit tests, and how brave we are to refactor. We want our work to speak for us and so created Sourcerer. Think of us as a hash of your code that digs deep, analyzes your technologies, habits, and preferences to show the world who you are as a software engineer.
