Zulip has many contributors and we'd love a visualization that helps us acknowledge them!

For this task, you should query the GitHub API to get all the information on the collaborators for the zulip/zulip repository and create an /authors page for the Zulip website (e.g. templates/zerver/authors.html).

The page should include a map for the location of all the contributors and a grid of avatars and usernames under it. Any other visualizations you find sensible would also be great - as this task is highly creative, make sure to discuss your ideas and mockups on Zulip.

For the map visualization, one of the ideas is using Plotly, e.g. this doc on choropleth maps. This could be a good starting point for creating the visualization and further discussing it.

Reading this thread on Zulip should be also helpful.
