Does anyone know any good strings to search github?

I'm fairly new to creating boolean strings. I joined to increase my knowledge of creating effective strings to be an  effective recruiter.

Github has location: and language: operators. Here is an example search:

 location:”san francisco” location:”bay area” language:javascript

I use this one with google:

site:github.com “joined on” (Deutschland OR Germany)

Change the country with your choice and add Keywords

With this link:

"https://github.com/search?langOverride=OCaml&language=&q=location%3A%22*%2C+germany%22&repo=&start_value=1&type=Users"

Github is opend and the location (in this case Germany) is alredy filled in the search field and you can see the total of users in this country.

Now you have two options:

1. you see below a few languages (JavaScript, Java, PHP a.s.o), just click on one and you'll get all the users with that language

2. just add the language on the search field like Irina told you
