Products that do what Disco – Easy GitHub Browsing does
Disco is tiny app I built over the weekend to try and make browsing git better. Inspired heavily by Tower, it also adds pull request integration and is run in the browser. It's only for public repositories. Checkout: http://disco.88cartell.com/#/rails/rails http://disco.88cartell.com/#/emberjs/ember.js http://disco.88cartell.com/#/angular/angular.js

I've always dreamed about a project like that when looking at status boards at other companies. We finally had the time to do our own. Here are some photos: http://www.flickr.com/photos/robert_olejnik/sets/72157633736087905/ The stack: Django, mustache.js, Chart.js, Bootstrap and custom Supybot plugin. Maybe will be inspiration for someone else ;-) Do you guys have similar status boards? Cheers, Robert.

What this is? a small side project called GaaC that allows you to use Github As a CDN. It: - is free and familiar. Everything stored in your separate repo. - has ease of use. Connect to your Github repo and start uploading files with drag and drop. You can also delete or modify them as needed. No manual commits required. - It comes with a search + preview UI, so you can quickly find the files you need. I've found this to be a time-saver for my own projects, and I hope it can help you as well. Why? As someone who frequently (somewhat) writes blogs, build toy websites or projects, I need to…

I started this as a weekend project and posted it on HN 5 years ago. 300,000 users later, I just released v4 today. Octotree [1] gives GitHub a sidebar that improves file navigation and code/pull request review. Works on Chrome, Firefox, Opera and Safari. Any comment or feedback is appreciated.

Hello HN. This is my first webapp. It works like a pastebin, in which you can visually keep track of the changes you and others make to it. I was a little reluctant about posting it here because I'm not sure it meets the HN quality standards, but, as a beginner, I would really appreciate to have some feedback and/or tips. The url is: http://srctree.net/ An example of usage: http://srctree.net/1 Thanks!

It's just streamed plaintext, you can curl it! It pulls my location from a shortcut on my phone that runs when I open any app (which also updates my GitHub location! https://github.com/malted). All the other stats are live.

Hey Guys, I created GithubReader.org (open-source, non-profit, most of the code is written by ChatGPT). My motivation: I wanted an easy way to keep a list of repositories I want to learn from and access them quickly. So, I built a search page where I can find repositories by name, like Google. Also, I wanted a nicer way to read Markdown files on my laptop without the GitHub UI, like reading a book. So, I made a custom UI with a back button that takes you to the previous state without jumping pages. The markdown links are sharable, e.g.…
