Find the perfect open source projects to contribute to

A lot of developers have heard the advice to "contribute to open source", but it's very difficult to get started. SourceSort aggregates projects that are great for new contributors and adds important metrics that aren't found elsewhere.

Maker here. Thanks for the hunt @chrismessina. I made this because I wanted to get more involved in open source software and found it difficult to know where to start. Other solutions focus too much on code alone, like just having a searchable list of issues. SourceSort instead includes metrics that affect the chances of a new contributor having a good experience, like how long it takes to get a response to your first pull request or the percentage of first time pull requests that are accepted and merged. Happy to answer any questions.

Nifty product @emile_paffard_wray :-) Would be nice if you can open-up submissions to the community who will be able to crowd select projects that get sourced through your tool.

@angeloe Yep, this is a good idea and it's in the pipeline.
