Retrieves GitHub Stats via git_api and flask.

GitHub User Search - Search all the GitHub users!

Created using Python3 and git_api, coded by JBYT27 and DillonB07.

About

This project was first an idea for KaJam, however, I got stumped on a problem, so I couldn't submit it in time. So I decided to continue coding it out of the jam! Basically, this is just a clone of @RayhanADev's Replit User Search. The difference is, this retrieves GitHub user data instead :D

Using it

All you need to do is enter a GitHub username in the textbox, press the search button, and the data will come up. Feel free to leave suggestions! Thanks!

Open it in a new tab to access it!

Conclusion

github-user-search's Issues

[BUG] Status 500 when trying to search user

This happens quite often. Though not 100% of the time

Bad screenshot

Looking at the screenshots, there's one that still has the chromebook 'Screenshot taken' window open, so you may want to retake the screenshot

[ENHANCEMENT] Add Flexbox CSS and responsive sizes

Hi,

I think this would benefit a lot from Flexbox.
If you don't know anything about Flexbox, I'd really recommend this guide. It helped me A LOT and I'd still be trying to muddle through absolute and relative layouts without it.

Guide: https://flexbox-rwd.com/
If you want something free, then you should check out CSS-Tricks article: https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox/ though it is a little tricky to understand in my opinion.

If you want, I'd be happy to help with the CSS. Making it responsive. I don't really know what to do with the background.
