Features & Capabilities

Followed By uses GitHub’s public API to fetch mutual followers for every profile you visit, straight to the profile page! ever visit someone’s GitHub profile and wonder — hmm, do we know each other? well here’s an easy fix to traverse the builders social graph: ✨ getfollowedby.xyz ✨

🤔 it’s cool, but is it any good?

  1. get set build: no package installs, followedby has 0 runtime dependancies
  2. your data is yours: no logging or storage on any server, because there ain’t any!
  3. clean and concise: built only using vanilla JS and the web API
  4. feels like it belongs: all UI config is inspired from GitHub Sponsors, making followed by look like a first party product

🫡 plans for the future? this project was made purely out of fun, to take my mind off things. feel free to contribute by creating issues/PRs and i will review them when i get the time. potential future features, might include follows you badges, safari support and migrating to typescript.

made for fun, and maybe for myself ✌️

Is Followed By Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Followed By requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
