Fetch repositories listed on a GitHub user's profile and display them via HTML
I realized how silly it was that I was manually updating the "Projects" section of my website, meanwhile I was always updating according to the progress of the repositories I was working on, which are publically displayed on my GitHub profile
I wanted to implement a simple script that can be included in my HTML page which will grab my GitHub profile's public repositories and format important information into a <div>
of my choosing. I use GitHub's REST API v3 to request the repositories on the client side of the HTML page's visitor
Now my website's "Projects" section automatically updates if I push a new public repository to GitHub, or if I update the description of one of my existing repositories, and more
The values you can expect per each jsonObject
pulled from the GitHub profileName
specified in the API request can be seen under Response in the docs for GitHub's REST API v3
