Favourite GitHub Repositories
-
Birds Eye - Python debugger I like the way it visualize the features of the app using gifs.
-
Game of trust Repository of a very good web application about game theory. It is witty and fun. It makes people want to explore the repository.
-
Optikey I saw this repository on reddit 2 years ago. It is a free and open source software for people with ALS/MND to communicate and use their computer. Before Optikey, those software were expensive and unobtainable for the poor. It has a very nice structural documentation.
-
React I heard a lot of things about React. But none of them was about how beautiful and planned their issue labels are. Unlike most other repositories I examined, they are really USING labels. And they are doing it in a way so beautifully organized.
-
YAPF Actually, I don't think this is a very good repository in terms of design but it is very useful as an application. It saves you from the burden of carefully formating your code and the others from the burden of reading your terribly formatted code. But its ReadMe file is too long and it really should be distributed in wiki which currently doesn't exist.
-
pipenv Pipenv is the officially recommended packaging tool for Python. It is very useful while developing python packages. I find its ReadMe file very well structured. It has clearly distinguished sections. Language of these sections is pretty clear. But nearly no one was using labels and this made me sad.
-
face_recognition It has an extremely well structured readme file which makes it so easy to understand what they are working on and how they achieve some of their goals. For example, after each face recognition example, they include a code snippet to allow the readers to understand the concepts easily even if they do not have a background about the topic. In addition, the usage of colorful labels like
makes the document even more readable. Their research area is also enjoyable and interesting to me.
-
jspaint Paint is the childhood hero of our generation. Seeing somewhat more advanced version of this old friend while exploring GitHub made me feel nostalgic and I liked the way they enhance Paint. It looks very useful and user friendly.
-
Kindle Comic Converter is a tool that I have been using for a while. The simplicity and clarity of both its wiki and readme is very nice.
