Siteation

Site-ation shows you which links have helped other developers, while helping you add Site-ations to PRs yourself

What if you could use crowd-sourcing to see how often an online resource helped a developer? What if you could better credit the articles and posts that helped you? That's the idea behind Site-ation, a free, open-source collaborative database that lets developers credit the resources (e.g. webpages/articles/blogs/StackOverflow posts/etc) that helped them write their PR. Site-ations are links that you and other developers have included in PRs to indicate that it helped with a solution. Similar to research paper citations, you can then see how often an article, blog post, or webpage has been Site-d by others. This browser extension lets you view existing Site-ations made by other users, as well as and easily store/format Site-ations for your own PRs.
