Front-end Coding Challenge

About The Project

• This task is to implement a small webapp that shows in a descending order the most starred repos on GitHub in the past 30 days from when you're running it.
• JSON data was fetched directely from GitHub API as shown below in Details

Details:

• Repos are shown 10 rows per page and after page #10 you should press on Get 100 Repos button to get the next page in Github API.

• Due to API regulations, only 1000 results can be shown, if you press on Get 100 Repos button 10 times, you will be alerted with this error.

• The project is optimised to run on laptop/mobile screen (tested and modified on iPhone X )

• Styling can be handled differently but due to lack of time , I decided to modify the features and made sure that is working properly

• Each row consists of:

  • Repository name
  • Repository description
  • Number of stars for the repo.
  • Number of issues for the repo.
  • Username and avatar of the owner.

• GitHub Api:

https://api.github.com/search/repositories?q=created:${todayDate}&sort=stars&order=desc&page=${pageNumber}

• Where todayDate & pageNumber are 2 variables that change according to date and page number

Technologies used:

• React
• HTML5
• CSS3

To start:

• clone the repo to your local PC
• run npm install
• then npm start
