Unlock the "Quickdraw" Achievement on GitHub

What is the "Quickdraw" Achievement?

The Quickdraw achievement is awarded when you close an issue or pull request within 5 minutes of opening it. It’s a fun way to show that you’re quick to address problems or make decisions.


Steps to Unlock "Quickdraw":

  1. Open an Issue or Pull Request:

    Create a new issue or pull request in a repository. This can be in your own project or someone else’s (if you have permission).

  2. Close It Quickly:

    Within 5 minutes of opening the issue or pull request, close it. You can do this by clicking the "Close issue" or "Close pull request" button.

  3. Check Your Achievements:

    Once you’ve closed it in time, the Quickdraw achievement should appear in your profile under the "Achievements" section.


Pro Tip:

If you’re working on a project, you can open a dummy issue or pull request just to test this out. Make sure to close it within 5 minutes to earn the badge!
