We tagged 190,589 GitHub developers by specialty. India leads only 2 of 9 domains; Nigeria's web3 tag rate over-indexes 7.8x, the biggest skew we found.
Scrape GitHub repos, users, stars, contributors, and trending data in 2026 — DIY Python, the rate-limited official API, or a structured API returning JSON.
We re-sliced our GitHub census by the security tag: the US leads (unlike AI/ML), and followers skew further from GitHub's norm than any domain we've checked.
We re-sliced our 973K GitHub census around the ml-ai tag: India leads AI/ML developer geography, and this group is far more reachable than GitHub overall.
We enriched 972,576 public GitHub profiles: geography, employers, and a follower distribution so skewed that 95% of developers sit under 100 followers.
