  • For anyone else curious about the allusion to Aaron Swartz, it can be found here and reads (as of posting):

  • faker

    Generate massive amounts of fake data in the browser and node.js (by faker-js)

  • But in this case: The majority of the work on the project comes from the maintainer. 2.5million lines, 500,000 net additions is more than the rest of the contributors combined. It wasn't a massively active project, but it's obvious that as with a lot of open source, a minority of contributors make up the majority of commits.

  • SurveyJS
