A list of the most active GitHub users
This is a list of most active GitHub users in United States over the past year. Other countries/regions can be found here.
This list was generated at 2026-08-24 03:48:50 +0000 and machine-readable JSON is available for:
This list is generated with this piece of code. The logic is as follows (in pseudocode):
githubUsers.sort(_.followers)
.filter(_.location == 'United States')
.take(1000)
.sort(_.contributions)
.take(256)
This list contains all public contributions for each user. There are 1903738 total users in the region and you need at least 1517 followers to be on this list.
Badges are also available, which you can include on your profile pages. Simply include the following markdown for users:
[](https://user-badge.committers.top/united_states_public/USERNAME)
For organizations, you need to use a slightly different markup:
[](https://org-badge.committers.top/united_states_public/ORGNAME)
In case you aren't currently ranked on this page, you'll simply receive an "unranked" badge.
