What it does
Stig is a CLI tool for searching GitHub from the terminal. With the ability to sort and filter results, Stig makes it easy to find what you're looking for. Stig can also print out a repositories README.md to stdout, so you can quickly learn more about a project. A forked repository will show a > symbol, instead of the default < symbol. A terminal emulator that supports ansi escape codes and true color is required when colored output is enabled. The majority of the popular terminal emulators should support both. While having the colored output enabled provides the best experience, it can be adjusted using the --color option, taking either on , off , or auto as inputs, with auto being the…from octobanana.com

It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
