Summary

In order for the frontend to fetch live data from GitHub, a backend API will need to make requests on behalf of the UI.

Details

  1. Will need an EC2 instance running w/ Docker
  2. Will need a way to manage environment variables for GitHub authentication token
  3. Document release procedure
  4. Rate limiting?
  5. Memcached?

maybe it makes sense to just use a Lambda for now, and consider this as part of another phase, where something like memcached could be leveraged and maybe all of it Dockerized.
