PG was right about the idea of a search engine for coders. But this comes up short. I wonder how old your crawl might be? I did a search and came up with links to an old open source project which hasn't been active for 7-8 years and the source isn't even on GitHub anymore.
I'd encourage you to keep trying. The key is to curate the results with people using that language every day. When they keep a tab open to it all day then start promoting it to people using that language. If you could crawl all the language groups on Slack and include those in the results it would be awesome.
- richardsocher 4y agoThanks. Yes, he's been an inspiration. Do you have some examples of the language groups on Slack you're thinking about? If you give us the queries you've tried, we will work on improving them also. We did crawl all of github to provide github issues but probably need more signals maybe stars/forks/most recent commit dates to rank them better... Thanks for pointing that out :)
