For those like me who want know how the page was built. It's using https://githubnext.com/projects/flat-data/ https://githubnext.com/projects/flat-data/. You can cycle through commits and files. Love it. Example of another such pages: https://flatgithub.com/the-pudding/data?filename=boybands%2Fboys.csv&sha=9b4e89ed178e11bf70a9b3d8ffa57ac2ea181b96 https://flatgithub.com/the-pudding/data?filename=boybands%2F... It felt a bit like datasette and no wonder it's the inspiration as well

I struggled for some time how to maintain data in repository. Initially stored them in a JSON files (1k per file). This, eventually, became tedious. In the end I just redistribute SQLite file now with the data. It is easier for the "user" to use ready database than a set of files. https://github.com/rumca-js/Internet-Places-Database https://github.com/rumca-js/Internet-Places-Database
