###FORENOTE This project isn't done and can still be upgraded in my ways.
###GOAL The idea is to track early followers of all-star projects.
- Search the 100 first followers of every project
- Cross-verification if they were in the first 100 followers of other projects, and if so, we increase the corresponding count
- We organize them by number of common projects followed
- We continuously track them, checks their recent followings.
- Again, cross-verification with other followers of the same and different categories if followed same project If so, we increase count
###USE Write the projects' twitter usernames in app/projects.txt file. To initally get all the first 100 users of the projects, launch crawler.py. To update the occurences, launch tracker.py.
###ISSUES Impossible to fetch the first 100 followers of projects with more than 5k followers.
###TO DO
- manage case where there are more than 5k followers, we have to use the cursor and so on
