From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Openhub also says it's "mostly written in javascript".
But in all seriousness: The port wasn't the greatest time for new contributors, because there wasn't a lot of feature work or cleanup happening.
So I'd expect more now.
Probably because the website site is listed as one of the repositories.
The website has about 50 lines of non-generated javascript. Even counting the generated JS, fish-site is 96.5% html.
(either way, setting a "main repo" here seems to be table stakes and does not fill me with confidence about OpenHub)
