It's cool to see tools like this. I ran into some issues though:

1. "We will email you"... "once the repositories have finished processing" Not sure you're supposed to do that without consent, when the intent was just to connect GitHub! Email use is supposed to be opt-in.

2. My tiny repo (https://github.com/lukestanley/ChillTranslator) won't load.

3. The UI for selecting a GitHub repo is hard to find and fiddly to use.

4. I couldn't see where to put the promo code.



1. Good point, didn’t think of that. We could make it a checkbox

2. Sadly, AWS just went down, absolute scramble at the office

3. Fiddly is the right word, we just changed it a couple days ago. Will make it cleaner.

4. You should only need that if you’re planning to upgrade, so you can click on the upgrade button and you should see a “Add promotion code” option on the left of checkout.


Thanks for the response. AWS going down is really bad luck!


I like to use different email addresses for different services. Please just ask me for an email address to use instead of using the one on github.


That makes sense, we should change that. Thanks for pointing it out.


don't over index on corner cases.
