alex/alexpdp7.git - Unnamed repository; edit this file 'description' to name the repository.

I have decided to not use GitHub stars any more.
Mainly because it excludes projects not on GitHub.
Also keeping things in a Org mode means I can classify and add notes.

See also [[TOOLS.org][tools I use]].
