Deployment

The project has been built on the Netlify, so you can see build folder here. If you want to run this repo standalone, just download this repo and execute npm start.

Attention: Since Github API has rate limitation, I apply an OAuth App to get API. You should also apply an OAuth App and Github will give you Client ID and Client Secret. In my repo, these two sensitive variables are saved in a local file .env.local. You can create this file under root directory and define variables like this (use keywords given by Github to replace xxx below):

REACT_APP_GITHUB_CLIENT_ID='xxx'
REACT_APP_GITHUB_CLIETN_SECRET='xxx'
