What this means for sourcing

Germany ranks 1st of 6 countries we track for Elixir by developers with 50+ followers. Worldwide, 329 Elixir developers pass that bar.

As a rule of thumb, to book 5 interviews at a 10% reply rate where 40% of replies turn into interviews, you contact about 125 people. That is more people than exist in the 50+ follower pool (15), so outreach inside this one country cannot fill the role on its own. You would need to widen the location or the stack.

How these numbers are produced

Counts come from GitHub's public user search: users who own repositories written in Elixir and whose free-text location contains "Germany". GitHub cannot combine several spellings in one query, so we used the spelling that returned the most results. Developers who wrote only a city, or nothing, are not counted. Treat every figure as a floor.

Followers and repository counts are crude proxies for experience. No names or profiles are shown on this page, only counts.
