4. **Note for Local Development**

Most pages work without a GitHub token, including:
- 🎖️ GitHub Badges page (`/badges/github-badges/`)
- 📚 Documentation and blog posts
- 🏪 Merch store (requires Shopify config)

The GitHub token is only required for:
- 📊 Dashboard leaderboard functionality
- 📈 Real-time GitHub statistics

If you see GitHub API errors, ensure your `.env` file is properly configured.
