DrupalCon New Orleans 2016: Visualizing Drupal Community through drupal.org

This talk explores the extensive Drupal community, one of the largest in the open-source sector, using data visualizations to convey insights from drupal.org. The speaker presents drustats.com, a tool designed to analyze various metrics including the number of users and contributors, the geographic distribution of the community, and trends in contributions to Drupal content and projects. Additionally, the session discusses the importance of data collection to illustrate community contributions and strategic ways to reward and encourage both code and non-code contributions. Attendees will gain valuable information about the current state of the Drupal community and considerations for its future growth.
