# OnboardTrack — Developer Onboarding Analyzer
**I'll analyze your codebase's onboarding friction using nothing but your git history — no setup, no dependencies, no guesswork.**
---
## What This Gig Delivers
Most teams have no idea how long it actually takes a new developer to become productive, or which parts of the codebase confuse them the most. OnboardTrack finds out — automatically — by analyzing your existing git commit history.
You get a clear, data-backed report answering:
- **Who had a slow start, and when?** — real commit velocity data, not guesswork.
- **Which files trip up new contributors the most?** — files repeatedly touched by different newcomers, a strong signal of missing or unclear documentation.
- **What should you actually document first?** — specific, prioritized suggestions tied to real hotspots in your repo, not generic advice.
---
## Why It's Different
- ⚡ **Zero setup** — just Python 3 and Git. No `pip install`, no API keys, no config files.
- 🔒 **100% local** — nothing leaves your machine. It only reads your own `git log`.
- 🎯 **Data-driven, not opinion-driven** — every suggestion is tied to a real hotspot found in your commit history.
- 📄 **Instant output** — a clean Markdown report, ready to paste into your docs or share with your team.
