Devthropology is a new project aiming to provide deeper insights into GitHub repositories by analyzing pull request data. The tool, built as a passion project, offers a more detailed and performant alternative to GitHub's native insights page. It focuses on contributor activity, tracking both code authorship and feedback.

The platform presents data across several sections. A homepage offers a high-level overview including repository age, file types, and user churn. The file explorer visualizes file history, renames, and moves, assigning an 'outlook' like 'active' or 'stale' to each file. Trends page charts contribution velocity, PR size, and review latency, attempting to correlate AI's impact on development speed.

Further analysis includes a relationships graph showing contributor interactions and a contributor report detailing authoring and reviewing metrics. A key metric tracked is the 'effective' approval, defined as the approval that directly leads to a merge after the last round of review. The project uses public GitHub data, with limitations in team syncing without a private API key. Demo repositories were chosen for their private company development patterns.
