Every Hitech company has a set of guiding principles for creating its goods, but sometimes it might be hard to find these philosophies if you don't work for that company. Github is really different because you can be able to quickly become comfortable with the GitHub design philosophy through an API request.

curl https://api.github.com/zen
If you use the aforementioned curl command repeatedly, you will receive one philosophy. for instance:

Non-blocking is better than blocking.
Half measures are as bad as nothing at all.
It's not fully shipped until it's fast.
Keep it logically awesome.

Let's explore other philosophies just by API calls...

It's very common for developers who develop projects based on spring framework to use spring's initializr online tool to generate scaffold of their projects.This tool is fantastic in spring framework ecosystem.

Sometimes I use this tool to find correct POM configs for my existing projects and I only download the generated zip file and extract it locally then check POM file or other files in it to apply in my projects.

Now in new version of spring initializr, this online tool provides an awesome feature to explore your project without needing to download it.
