Extension summary
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?
- get set build: no package installs, followedby has 0 runtime dependancies
- your data is yours: no logging or storage on any server, because there ain’t any!
- clean and concise: built only using vanilla JS and the web API
- 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
