GitHub’s Innovation Graph is a regular thing they do every few months to display all the work developers from around the world have accomplished. The information gives a wider picture by highlighting the developer community in whole countries. The newest numbers show some unexpected trends, showing us hints about countries that are making big progress.

In the three months before September 2023, Bangladesh experienced a big increase suddenly, with almost 945,696 developers actively participating in public GitHub projects. During the same time in 2022, the number was 568,145, showing a huge increase of almost two-thirds compared to the previous year. It is the biggest jump seen globally.

It is crucial to think about the dataset’s constraints, exclusively looking at public repositories, which show less than half of everything going on GitHub. Although GitHub experts say that, the divide between what is done publicly and privately stays the same in different countries. Private actions change as public interest does.

Although GitHub only shows a small part of a country’s software development, the data indicates that programming is becoming more popular in regions that the Western tech industry has not focused on much in the past.

Highlighting Leaders in Growth

To identify the countries with the quickest growth, the remaining global regions compared developer numbers from the last quarter of 2023 (September through December) with the same time frame from the previous year. Countries that had less than 500,000 active developers in the latest three-month period were left out to concentrate on significant contributors.

Comparing this to GitHub’s total numbers, where the U.S. has the most developers with 20.2 million, followed by India with 13.3 million, China with 6.9 million, and Brazil with 5.4 million, shows a different view. Even though rich countries have the most developers overall, up-and-coming places like Bangladesh and Nigeria are growing fast in comparison.
