GitGrab

Objective:

This simple project was built to pull data from the GitHub API and use local JSON for login information and endpoints. I used it to pull data such as,

• Avatar img
• GitHub about info
• Repo, Followers and Following count
• GitHub link

This repo will start on a 404 page. Once you navigate to the login page, there are only 3 users — myself and two others who have played a large role in my learning journey.

Here are the usernames (UN) and passwords (PW) for each:

UN: Josh PW: pass
UN: Brad PW: pass
UN: David PW: pass

Why?

To practice working with:

• Arrays and their methods
• JSON
• fetch()
• APIs
• async/await
• and just for fun!

This app is published on PlayCode.io and can be accessed at the following link:

I used no JS frameworks, as this was built to strengthen my fundamental JavaScript skills.

However, I did use Bootstrap and utilized AI for the HTML structure — not to be confused with "vibe coding", which I strongly discourage myself from doing. I use AI (ChatGPT as a tool to help debug and learn, not to code and pretend...) I created this project to somewhat mimic backend JS coding.

Enjoy something simple - GitGrab.
