GitHub Script for JavaScript Developers, Made by a Python Developer

#javascript #python #github

Recently, JavaScript has been trending a lot in my country. I mean, it's everywhere—Node.js, Vue, Nuxt, and so on. As a Python developer, I was like, "Oh no!" Sure, I can eventually find Python jobs, but for every one Python job, there are 100 Node.js ones. So, I decided to do something fun about it.

I wrote a script that fetches recently joined GitHub users (within the last few weeks) from my country who are writing in JavaScript and have 1-3 JavaScript repositories.

I ended up fetching over 3,000 usernames! Then, for 50 in 3,000+, I opened issues and tagged them, like this:

In total, I created over 120 issues. 😂 It's not really spam since each user got only one notification, as the issues were closed and locked immediately. Also, no username was tagged more than once. It was just for fun because, honestly, I’m getting jealous of how big the JavaScript community is becoming while Python feels a bit left out. 😅

Then, I got this comment:

Ahhhh, that’s hilarious! I didn’t see that coming. 😂

Here’s the script: https://github.com/skylord0001/some-github-script

Thanks for reading… bye!

How I fixed 20 seconds of lag for every user in just 20 minutes.

Our AI agent was running 10-20 seconds slower than it should, impacting both our own developers and our early adopters. See how I used Sentry Profiling to fix it in record time.
