nabeelvalley··on Show HN: Link Book – Quickly save links from around the web to GitHub
thanks for all the feedback everyone, i've made an update that makes it possible to only give access to a single repository instead of the entire account

thanks for the details - I was looking at the fine grained token but the user would then have to provide me with the the token and then I'd have to store that on my end - since i'm trying to avoid storing any user data that doesn't really play into the structure at all

with regards to the public token thing it's a bit of the same complexity since I would need to know if the repository the user is using is public or private and then configure the OAuth scopes appropriately since I do want to have support for private repos (as that's how I use it currently)

i use it but the repo is private

yeah so I actually have another app I built for this, it's still not 100% stable but you're welcome to try it out:

yup I am

I like this idea, will see how feasible it is

so it has a PWA that handles the web share API so you can share straight to it, but I'm not sure how that handles on iOS

not at the moment, I don't plan on monetising it at any point so doesn't really seem necessary

thanks, yeah gonna see what I can do about that in a bit

mentioned this in another comment but yeah will give this a shot, seems like an important point of feedback
nabeelvalley··on Show HN: Link Book – Quickly save links from around the web to GitHub
would definitely consider it, the repo may just need a bit of work before it's ready for that

yeah it shouldn't be, couldn't get the GitHub API to give me access to just a single repo, once I work that out I'll definitely ease the requirement
