What does this even mean and why should I sign in with Github?


All these strange professions always wave the fact that they are registered in my face. It means nothing to me. I don't care if my nurse is registered or not. I can't tell the difference. This is a bit of a tongue in cheek app.

You sign in with Github to prove that you are a developer. It also means I don't have to make you fill out a CAPTCHA or ask you for your email. I ask for the lowest permission (read your public stuff), so don't worry about my trying to do harm to your Github account.


I'm not worried about it, I'm just curious what your value proposition is and you do it.
