github-heatmap
A CLI tool built with Rust to scrape a Github profile and mirror the SVG heatmap as Unicode.
This is intended to be a fun little project to play around with scraping with Rust. I know that it's not the most efficient way to get these results, especially given that Github's GraphQL API is quite extensive.
