github-lang-box

Fork of lang-stats-box with some customizations:

• Updated dependencies, Rewritten in TypeScript
• Published to npm, Added binary for use with npx or pnpx
• Use /user/repos endpoint to fetch all repos of the user (including private repos)
• Custom description, exclude languages and repositories!

Note: Due to the use of /user/repos endpoint, the Fine-grained access tokens must have the metadata:read permission.

Setup

• Create a new public GitHub Gist (https://gist.github.com/)
• Create an access token with the gist and metadata:read scopes and copy it.(https://github.com/settings/tokens?type=beta)
