Github User Search

Search and view users via the Github API - https://simonsmith.github.io/github-user-search

Requests are cached in session storage to limit the use of the API.

What is this?

A personal project built with React, Redux and other tools to search users and view their profiles on Github. Nothing serious.

Feel free to open issues for questions/improvements!

Libraries and tools

• Aphrodite
• Babel
• Jest
• React
• React Router
• Redux
• Redux saga
• SUIT CSS
• Webpack

Running locally

1. Clone the repository
2. Install dependences yarn
3. Run the server yarnpkg run start
4. Visit http://localhost:3001/github-user-search/ (note the trailing slash)

API limit

The Github API has a fairly strict limit (hence the indicator of your remaining requests in the footer). When running the app locally you can export a personal access token and this will be sent along in any API calls to increase the limit:

export USER_SEARCH_OAUTH=<your token>
yarnpkg run start

TODO

• Service worker
• webpack chunks based on route
