We (and other companies) spend a lot on engineers. Having a sanity check on performance within an org, and across all companies, is very valuable.
I first discovered GitPrime through ProductHunt shortly after it launched and used it as an early customer while working on my first startup. We were unusual in that we were a small team of two developers and while the product is designed for larger and more established teams, we found the reports really useful to analyse our work and see just how much time we were spending contributing new code, dealing with technical debt and refactoring legacy code.
When I was getting started as a founder, I was admittedly a lacklustre developer. To be fair, as a founder now, I'd still say I was pretty average. That said, I can crack out some decent code when the time comes.
But y'know what's even harder than writing consistently decent code yourself? Making sure your dev team's writing consistently decent code too.
GitPrime gives you high level insights into your team's performance, actionable insights and reports. When something catches your eye you can dig in and explore more. Invaluable for anyone running a dev team, no matter your coding experience. Highly recommended.
This book is based on the GitPrime software which I've been happily using for years.
