VS Code Issue Tracker

Created September 2018

During September 2018, the VS Code team worked on getting the issues on their GitHub down and I wanted to see how they progressed over the month so I developed a static site that graphed said data over time. I utilized GitHub's API to get the state of the issues on an hourly basis and the end result was quite sucessful given they were able to triage about 4000 issues during that month.

  • AWS Lambda
  • C3.js
  • GitHub GraphQL API
  • Firebase
