The original title is: "Overgrowth: Visualizing GitHub commit history as a generative tree with AI poetry"

Original: Every commit you've ever pushed was feeding a tree. I built the thing that lets you meet it.

Short summary

Overgrowth is a creative web app that generates a living tree visualization from any GitHub username, mapping commit history, language diversity, stars, and late-night pushes onto branching growth rules. A lantern-carrying wanderer delivers an AI-generated poem about the developer, read aloud via text-to-speech. Built with Next.js, TypeScript, Canvas 2D, Claude Code for development, and Gemini for poem generation.

  • •Generates deterministic tree visualizations from GitHub user activity data
  • •Maps repos, languages, stars, and push timing onto biological growth rules
  • •Uses Claude Code for development and Gemini for personalized poem generation

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
