What Hacker News says?
https://www.codacy.com I've made this because all the companies that my co-founder and I met had scripts glued together in build tools to get code metrics and static analysis. We ended up discovering a significant amount of people and companies interested in having a nice product constantly running code analysis and linked to Github.

HN discussionI'm working on a similar project, although mine isn't OS yet. Overall, I enjoyed looking at some of the decisions you made! Good job.
