Drill Down HN : Github

[bo_Olean]

When I land at web apps or sites upvoted here in HN, most of the time I wonder - how these sites were developed. Figuring out all architectural, technical and UI aspects of an app or a site would be inspiring to a developer-cum-lurker like me.

GitHub itself provides quite a bit of information about their internals over at their blog: http://github.com/blog.

A few I found interesting:

* https://github.com/blog/517-unicorn

* https://github.com/blog/542-introducing-resque

You also might want to check out their public projects: http://github.com/github
