The last couple of days have been relatively productive. Thanks to GitHub's excellent API documentation, I've got to the stage where I can reliably authenticate a user with my application via Oauth, and use their key to pull basic user info such as their private email address and GitHub ID.
Today I began work on my project in earnest. It always helps me to visualize my goals if I can draw them out, and I still find pen and paper to be the best medium for rapidly exploring ideas.
Today is August 1st. Now that I have been back in Bristol for a little while, it's time to knuckle down on a project that I've been thinking about in some form or another for the last few months.
