Strengths
- Fast loading and smooth navigation through GitHub repositories (review: 'Loads instantly, no lag even on slow connections')
- Clean, minimalist UI focused on readability and developer workflow (review: 'I love how it just shows the code without clutter')
- Supports dark mode and customizable font sizes for better reading (review: 'Dark mode + large text = perfect for late-night coding')

- Strong keyword ranking for 'github' (#30), indicating solid discoverability
Weaknesses
- Limited feature set compared to full-featured clients like GitKraken or GitHub Desktop (review: 'Missing branch comparison and diff views')

- No support for private repositories in free version (review: 'Can’t access my team’s repos unless I pay')
- Lacks notifications for pull request updates or mentions (review: 'I missed a PR review because there’s no alert')
