About this tool
Search and discover detailed statistics, repository listings, star counts, fork metrics, and language breakdowns for any GitHub user profile.
GitHub Profile Finder looks up any public GitHub username or organisation through GitHub's own REST API and returns the profile card — bio, company, location, website, join date, public repo count, followers, following and gists — alongside that account's 30 most recently updated repositories. From those repos it ranks the top 8 by stars plus forks and works out a language split as the share of repos written in each language. It is for anyone sizing up a developer, a candidate or an open-source organisation without clicking through half a dozen GitHub tabs.
Open GitHub Profile Finder on AltFTool — it loads instantly in your browser.
Type a handle into the 'Enter GitHub username (e.g. gaearon)...' box, or pick one of the 'Try searching' examples such as vercel or torvalds.
Press 'Find Profile' to call GitHub's public REST API for the profile and that account's 30 most recently updated public repositories.
Read the profile card's followers, public repo and gist counts and join date, the 'Code Language Distributions' bar, and the 'Popular Repositories' cards ranked by stars plus forks.
Repositories are sorted by stars plus forks combined, so a widely-forked utility is not buried under a project that merely got a recent commit.
The top six languages are shown as a percentage of the fetched repositories that declare that language, with GitHub's familiar per-language colours.
A missing username returns a plain 'user not found' message and a 403 is reported as a rate-limit hit, so you know whether to fix the spelling or wait.
Directly from GitHub's public REST API — one call to the users endpoint and one to that user's repos endpoint — so the figures are whatever GitHub is serving at the moment you search. Nothing is cached or stored by the tool.
Because the lookup is unauthenticated, and GitHub caps unauthenticated REST requests per IP address — 60 per hour under its published limits — while each search here uses two of them. If you hit the cap, wait for the hour window to roll over; sharing an office or VPN IP makes it arrive sooner.
It fetches the 30 most recently updated public repositories, displays the top 8 of those by stars plus forks, and derives the language chart from the same 30. So for a very prolific account the language split reflects recent work rather than a lifetime total.
No. Only public data exposed by the unauthenticated API is available, so private repos, private contributions and the contribution heatmap are out of scope. Public repo count, followers, following and public gists come straight from the profile record.
