This repository contains a demo project created as part of my DevOps studies in the TechWorld with Nana – DevOps Bootcamp.

Overview

The application main.py uses the requests library to call the public GitHub REST API endpoint:

GET https://api.github.com/users/{username}/repos

It parses the JSON response and prints each repository's name and URL to the console.

Configuration

The target GitHub user is set via the username variable in main.py:3:

username = "explicit-logic"

Change this value to list repositories for any other GitHub account.

Run the Application

uv run main.py
