Hello there!

For a weekend project, I wanted to write a program that would use the C++ HTTP client library I've been working on recently. I was curious to put it to the test in a real scenario and see what works and find any pain points. I decided on making a CLI program that utilized GitHub's HTTP API to perform search queries.

Stig is a CLI tool for searching GitHub from your terminal. It has all the same sorting and filter options that are present on GitHub, and outputs coloured, formatted results to stdout.

Feedback and thoughts are welcomed!
