We're beyond excited to introduce StarSearch to you all. Our newest feature at OpenSauced! In 2022, I worked at GitHub and consistently got feedback from open-source maintainers that they’d love more insights. This is also true for builders who depend on open source to ship and iterate quickly. Founders are choosing open source, but few know who to connect with for expertise. 🌟 Why StarSearch? In the 90s, I watched a show on television at my grandma's house called StarSearch. This same show discovered Beyonce, Ryan Gosling, and Justin Timberlake before they were stars. This new and complementary feature is live in our OpenSauced product today, and we have indexed millions of GitHub events and are excited to get your feedback on the approach. 🍕 Track impactful developers from open source projects 🍕 Discover new projects in open source 🍕 Identify your next core contributors Using StarSearch, you can find up-and-coming contributors through trends in public open-source data, which can set you apart from the rest when building. We love open source and want more folks connected to the who's who in this space. StarSearch is our first exploration of adding semantic search to fetch relevant context on the projects used, built, and depended on. 👀 Try it out and run the following test prompts https://oss.fyi/starsearch Who are some Tailwind experts who also have an interest in Rust? Who are the prevalent contributors in the Typescript ecosystem? What pull requests has charliermarsh worked on recently? 🙏 Thank you for exploring StarSearch! We've invested our passion and creativity into this; your feedback is invaluable. Dive in, engage, and know we're here for any questions or chats about the wonders of OpenSauced. 👇 We're all ears for your feedback below! 👇

@bdougieyo Congratulations on launching StarSearch! It sounds like a game-changer for the open-source community. So tell me, if StarSearch could form a band with famous open-source contributors, what would the band's name be and what would their debut album be called?

@ena_gluhakovic, that is an amazing question. Right out of the gate, the band name is "Looks good to me (LGTM)," and the debut album would of need to be "Hello World"

@bdougieyo That’s fantastic! "LGTM" is a brilliant band name, and "Hello World" is the perfect debut album title for a group of open-source rockstars. Can't wait to see their "Release Notes" tour dates! Thanks for the creative and fun response! 🎸🚀

@bdougieyo @ena_gluhakovic The Code Harmonics has a nice ring to it too.

@bdougieyo @bekahhw Yeaah, definitely has a nice ring to it! First thing that came to my mind "Syntax Error & The Debuggers". I think this is such a cool game, thank you guys for playing 🎸🎼

Congrats on launching StarSearch. It’s the Github Contributor Tab on steroids. This opens up so many opportunities for finding the right person for the right task. Even just searching for specific packages or components, I can easily identify the persons who are instrumental in the development.

@mfts0 Thanks for checking it out, Marc. We have so many more things planned, but we had to limit ourselves so we could ship. I would be happy to hear any specific insights you like to see from the prompts or if any edge cases arise.

@mfts0 It definitely decreases the amount of detective work you have to do. Feel free to share your feedback!
