Find JavaScript engineers and maintainers

The list above ranks the most-starred public JavaScript repositories, drawn from the public GitHub graph. Across 55,621 JavaScript repositories in the public graph, the maintainers, top contributors, and recurring committers are a powerful signal for where JavaScript expertise lives.

Behind every popular JavaScriptproject is a small group of people who actually shipped it. They’re the JavaScriptengineers, library authors, and infrastructure builders worth knowing - whether you’re hiring, partnering, or doing technical research.

Refolk turns this list into a search. Ask for JavaScript maintainers hiring”, “contributors to JavaScript repos based in Europe”, or “companies whose engineers ship JavaScript” and Refolk returns a ranked shortlist with the commits, repos, and profiles that earned each person a spot.

How this list is built

Refolk searched GitHub for public repositories whose primary language is JavaScript, ranked them by stargazer count, and kept those with at least 100 stars. The list refreshes once a day.
