I was waiting to get my submission of GithubFinder to the 10KApart contest approved before posting the link here on HN, however, it seems like I'm running into some issue with the rules and I may not get the app accepted. The app is using a small proxy script to grab files from Github and even though I think the proxy script is generic enough to fit in their #3 rule, "3rd party API use", I don't want to bet on that.<p>So here it is, GithubFinder. I've been using it personally for the past few days and it's awesome. Browsing Github repository now is a breeze. This morning I implemented the Greasemonkey script to add a button to the Github repo page, and with this feature in place, I think the app is pretty complete. So I decided to announce it to the HN community. There are lots of Github users here so I hope it'll be a great tool to all.<p>For bugs and features request please go to<p><a href="http://github.com/sr3d/GithubFinder/issues" rel="nofollow">http://github.com/sr3d/GithubFinder/issues</a><p>Thanks!<p>PS: thanks to Github for being awesome. The API is pretty sweet!

This looks cool. I'm impressed it's under 10K (I do think it's funny that the 10K contest allows the inclusion of libraries that are much bigger).<p>I've bookmarked it to use in the future.
