Show HN: I built GithubReader.org for better learning experience (githubreader.org)

Hey Guys, I created GithubReader.org (open-source, non-profit, most of the code is written by ChatGPT).

My motivation:

I wanted an easy way to keep a list of repositories I want to learn from and access them quickly. So, I built a search page where I can find repositories by name, like Google.

Also, I wanted a nicer way to read Markdown files on my laptop without the GitHub UI, like reading a book. So, I made a custom UI with a back button that takes you to the previous state without jumping pages.

The markdown links are sharable, e.g. https://githubreader.org/render?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com...

Repository URL: https://github.com/agdaily/github-reader/




Neat tool, thanks for sharing. It would be nice if the behavior of the anchor links in markdown was preserved. In the markdown example you provided[1] the anchor links don't appear to work.

Hi, thanks for checking it out. I will be working on the markdown navigation issue, tracking here https://github.com/agdaily/github-reader/issues/1


now md navigation is supported, also added dark and kindle theme support


Awesome, great job!


The auto complete search is nice. I just found a repo (for linked-data) I wouldn't have otherwise.

ENH: search github labels with query patterns


glad you liked it. thanks for the suggestion, added it here https://github.com/agdaily/github-reader/issues/3
