Straight from GitHub

Nobody has written up this repo. Everything on this page comes straight from the GitHub API, so there is no founder write-up, no pros and cons, and no difficulty rating — rather than a generated guess at them.

Maintenance

Licence

GPL-3.0

Tech stack

Primary language: Shell. GitHub reports only the dominant language, so this is not the whole stack.

Install

No install command has been verified for this repo. Follow the README rather than a guess.
