About

Cadence

Features
Read full description

adence shows every contribution you have made to GitHub on one screen: commits, pull requests, issues and reviews, from your first year to today. Pick a window and the grid and the total recompute. Swipe to step a year. All is simply the widest window: one row per year, one cell per month, every year you have. READ-ONLY ACCESS The scope is read:user, the narrowest permission that can count private contributions. Nothing can be pushed or edited, and your code is never read. Revoke it on GitHub at any time. NO ACCOUNT Nothing to sign up for. You approve a code on GitHub's own page and the token stays in your device keychain. There are no Cadence servers, no analytics and no advertising. WORKS OFFLINE Your history is cached on the device, so every window and every year reads without a connection. Nothing is disabled and nothing is greyed out; a quiet line names the date the record reaches. FREE, NO ADS Cadence is free, with no in-app purchases and no ads. WHAT GETS COUNTED The totals come from GitHub's own contribution calendar, so everything it counts is inside every number here, private contributions included. Commits, pull requests, issues and reviews are broken out per day; discussions and new repositories are in the total only, because GitHub does not report them separately.
