Hi HN!
One week ago there was a good post by @ciaoben and discussion [1]. We noticed that there were complains about data readability. Since we love visualizations we decided to make this data more interesting to view and get insight into.
Our work consists of two parts:
- a form to collect data from developers living in any country in the world;
- a visualization showing statistical summaries for countries and cities.
We would love to collect more data to make the visualization complete.
The project is open-source, so feel free to contribute [2].

Many well paying companies have a significant non-salary component, so you're going to get some people who put their base salary and some people who put their total comp. I don't know shit about survey design, but it might be worth thinking more about how you collect your data.
- mkalygin 9y agoGood point actually. Do you think that additional input for bonuses would do the trick? Though I have no idea how to account non-cash bonuses (they do have a cash equivalent, but I'm pretty sure that people won't bother to convert).
