I'm currently beating around the bush on building a GitHub clone minus react, copilot, etc.
There's no reason I should have my browser tabs crash when I view a pull request involving more than 100 files. The page should already have been generated on the server before I requested it. The information is available. All that remains are excuses and wasted CPU cycles.
- thephyber 1y agoAre you just building a web front end on the GitHub API or are you building an end-to-end social programming service?
- bob1029 1y agoI started with front end for GH API, but the rate limits and web hook limitations (must own repo) make it a non-starter for total replacement of the typical use cases. 5,000 requests/hr is a lot, but there are repositories with so many issues that you couldn't keep up with things like edits to comments.
