Usage

Authentication

• Create environment variable GITHUB_TOKEN with a personal access token
• When running the app, octokit will use this token to make calls to the API.

Reading Feed Data

After the feed is initialized, you will be able to request JSON formatted data from the feed at its address. To see this in action:

• Open your browser and go url http://localhost:3000 (or whichever address you have the app running).
• You will see a JSON-formatted response with relevant data.

This format is structured in a way interpretable by the Master List apps. But you could also use this feed for other purposes if you wanted.
