It's kinda neat but a pretty obvious TOS violation. I'm not sure github is really interested in people taking advantage of their free service to run their web

  Q: What part of this is a TOS violation?

  for what its worth, when i did it (https://www.swyx.io/github-scraping/ https://www.swyx.io/github-scraping/) and tweeted about it (https://twitter.com/swyx/status/1219739210434994177 https://twitter.com/swyx/status/1219739210434994177), github employees replied supportively. i really doubt they care unless you are running massive scale.

    for now they are probably going to tolerate any usage even if you harm them in order to be the leader and kill the competition, then things will change. 101 monopoly

    If by github employees you mean the devs, I expect them to like it. It's the managers and lawyers that you need to worry about.
