    Better GitHub statistics images for your profile, with stats from private repos too

  • I have done similar work using the GitHub APIs before. I recommend using their GraphQL explorer to develop your queries interactively. You may need to fall back on the REST API instead of the GraphQL one for certain stats.

    You can also refer to my code here, which may already collect some of the statistics you're interested in.

    I predict the most annoying part of this project will be dealing with authentication. There are a handful of ways to do it, and the permissions can be finicky depending on what data you are fetching.

    Best of luck!
