Hey hunters! 👋 Ever have that gut-punch moment when you lose your Github contribution streak? Yeah, me too. The idea for GitStreak was born from a moment of frustration when an empty square appeared on my profile. Not because I didn’t code, but because I simply forgot to commit. Without my trusty Deskhub (by @_maxblade) displaying my contribution graph on my office desk, it completely slipped my mind. While I wouldn’t say I was heartbroken (that’s a bit dramatic), it was definitely a facepalm moment. As someone who thrives on daily challenges and building new habits, I’ve learned that sometimes we all need a friendly nudge. That’s exactly what I love about the language app Duolingo — it keeps me accountable with a timely, daily reminder. So I thought, “Why not create the same for my Github account?” GitStreak is exactly that: a simple email reminder service that helps you maintain your GitHub streak. No bells, no whistles — just a friendly ping when you need it. And the best part? If you’ve already committed that day, it’ll stay quiet and let you bask in your productivity, keeping your inbox clutter-free. Special thanks to Jonah Lawrence (github.com/DenverCoder1) whose “Streak Stats” repository provided insights into utilizing the GitHub API for contribution tracking. His work laid the foundation for GitStreak’s contribution counting functionality.
