plugin contains API to help you in making a call to GitHub API resources. There’s <code>includes/tools.php</code> file that show 
you how to use the API from this plugin to make a call to various GitHub resources (for instance to get repository information).
Development of this plugin is done on <a href="https://github.com/gedex/wp-github-api" rel="nofollow ugc">GitHub</a>. Pull requests are always welcome.
If you’re looking for widget or shortcode you can try following plugins (which depend on GitHub API plugin):

<ul>
<li>The username and password to send for <code>BASIC</code> authentication.
