Top 22 developers 2015

By on People

Blender.org lists the most 'active' developers in the Blender community as determined by their commit activity.

Let’s salute and applaud the most active developers for Blender of the past year again! Obviously a commit total doesn’t mean much, and it doesn’t include work on the branches* even. Nevertheless, it’s a great overview to get to know some of the people who make Blender possible.

I have a LONG history with Blender - I wrote some of the earliest Blender tutorials, worked for Not a Number and helped run the crowdfunding campaign that open sourced Blender (the first one on the internet!). I founded BlenderNation in 2006 and have been editing it every single day since then ;-) I also run the Blender Artists forum and I'm Head of Community at Sketchfab.

    Massive thanks to the unsung heroes of our favorite software. We should have each of these talented developers appear on the Blender (Development) Podcast with Campbell and Thomas.

    I started reading the page without reading the intro and for some reason thought the numbers were the developers' age - then it quickly skyrocketed to the eighties and hundreds...

    That's a lot of keyboard hours! Congrats to all involved in Blender development. A special nod to those listed here, who've put in a heck of a lot of time and effort into this thing.

    For an application that became a free and open-source project 13 years ago, this thing's sure come a heck of a long way.

    Short of Linux (variously) itself, Blender's one of the longest-surviving on-going FOSS developments around. Pretty neat, when you think about it.

    Good luck to Blender's future development. And a fortunate 2016 to you all, pretty soon.

    You are all amazing! Thank you times 100. More podcasts please - I'm in IT and it's fascinating to hear more details about Blender development (thanks already to Thomas Dinges and Campbell Barton).

    Have been using Blender since 2.49, and all of you and many more have turned the software from something useful to something incredible.

    Thanks again, and keep on Blenderin'. And developin'.
