For the purpose of this application, we are going to use a configuration file to store our user-account-related data, which will allow us to authenticate to the Github API. For this, inside our project directory, create a new file named config.ini with the following contents:

[github_auth]
username = ‘<your github username>’
password = ‘<your github password>’

Once we have the configuration file setup complete, let's move on to writing our application code, which will interact with Github to get our repos.
