I would love to see something like this for other successful companies.

Too often, we see the tech stacks of famous firms, but not the stacks that preceded them.

It would be very interesting to note if, say, 80% of unicorns started their life as RoR, or PHP projects. It tells you one of two things:

1. Which frameworks were popular n years ago (where n is the average time it takes from launch to unicorn)

2. Which framework actually helps you get an MVP off the ground
