If you are interested in other visualizations like this and related software code analysis you might find the book Your Code as a Crime Scene - available from various book sellers - usefully thought provoking. If books aren’t your bag you can also watch a TEDx talk by the author.

Thanks for the link.
Did have a look at the TEDx talk. Very interesting.
Did you read the book?
Is there some software, that created the “heat maps”? … It would be nice to see those maps for our project.

I’ve not (yet) watched the TEDx talk. I read the book years ago and it continues to make an impression on me.
I believe GitHub - adamtornhill/code-maat: A command line tool to mine and analyze data from version-control is the corresponding code repo. The README there talks about various visualization options.
And here is another github repo visualization tool / article - although I have to say I do not find running it on TiddlyWiki’s repo all that instructive.
I did create an account at https://codescene.io/ . They do have a free tier for open-source projects. … BUT they do want to have read and write access to the whole repo to work properly. So I do need to create a new organisation with a fork of TW to be able to run some tests.
Github tokes imo are a bit generous with access rights granted. …
