Panel for Github repos?

[Visnes]

I wanted an easy way to see which favorite repos had published new releases to /releases/, so I made a tab home page thing inspired by Bonjourr.

So I added a panel container to the bottom of the page that dynamically changes width based on how big your screen is. You can select to show the repo icons or not, and it adds a little ✨ (which you can decide to show or not, and for how long after an update). You can change the date format, and also decide how long the updates are to show. So I have it set to 30 days for a release and 2 days for the new tag. Clicking the boxes takes you to the repo. I can 📌 pin repos I follow to the left side of the panel too. Also, clicking the upside down Github logo closes the panel and makes the logo right side up. Oh, and I added the video backgrounds from Pixabay I asked about weeks ago. 🙃

Useful thing for Bonjourr or way to nerdy and niche? I did this because I couldn't find anything useful for telling me repos get updated except for going to Github or setting up emails notifications (eww), and well, I'm always in my browser and always opening new tabs. 😊

Impressive! Great job! ❤️

I tend to be a minimalist with Bonjourr, so I likely wouldn't use this nice functionality, but that doesn't stop me from being impressed and expressing my congratulations on a job well done! 👍🏾

I have minor concerns about Bonjourr eventually becoming slow and bloated, but at the same time, I appreciate fully-featured software with maximum configurability and unlimited levels of customization. Speed and small footprint is critical for Bonjourr because its code is typically loaded with every empty new tab. How many KB of code would this add (including any new dependencies)?

Thanks. 😊 Right now I'm making a config file and settings panel and moving a lot of the code around, but just the repo part is around 12-15KB for the JS and CSS, I guess. So not that big? 🙃

I might try to fork Bonjourr and add it myself to see how it fits.

You're welcome! Thanks for your reply.

12-15KB is much bigger than I thought it would be, but not enormous. How much of it is JS, and how much CSS? Is any of that libraries, or is it all code you wrote?

It's crappy code, can definitely be shrunk. 90 % JS. I wouldn't use my code, but maybe my idea. 😊
