GithubActivityLedDashboard

An LED dashboard to show your Github commit activity. I made this as a physical reminder to work on my coding projects. Seeing my (lack of) activity on my github is a great motivational tool.
The dashboard shows 2 weeks worth of Github activity using LEDs to indicate activity.

An ESP32 is used to get the github activity information from a ThinkSpeak API. It also controls the LEDs for the dashboard. WS2811 LED strips are used for indicating github activity.

To get the github commit activity, ThingSpeak API is used to webscrape the data from the github profile using an xpath.
