About the project: braintreepayments.com/blog/codeology-reimagining-code/

Developers spend countless hours creating the code that lies behind the scenes of almost everything we do. It manifests itself through the sites we browse and the tools we use. But, as is the nature of the beast, the code itself remains unseen.

Today we took the chance to flip the script. To celebrate the individual lines and languages, the choices that are unique to each application, and the developer behind each.

Because we know there are a million ways to arrive at any final product -- some more elegant than others -- we've created an open-source project that gives life to the art and science of code. It's called Codeology.

Codeology is an open-source project that reimagines code by bringing it to life visually. The combination of programming languages in each GitHub project determines its look: as no two pieces of original code are exactly alike, no two Codeology forms are either.
