How Darkest-PR Adds Drama to Your Repository and Development Workflow

Hello, fellow developers! 👋

Let me introduce my most recent app on GitHub Marketplace: Darkest-PR, a GitHub bot inspired by the intense and atmospheric world of Darkest Dungeon. If you’re looking to inject a bit of drama and excitement into your development workflow, this bot might be just what you need.

What is Darkest-PR?

Darkest-PR is a GitHub app that comments on pull requests and issues in your repository with quotes from the iconic ancestor character in Darkest Dungeon. Whether it’s a pull request being opened, merged, or closed, Darkest-PR is there to add a touch of thematic narrative to your repository’s activity.

It's here to narrate your development and make it more like a journey!

How is it built?

You may find the tutorial on how I built it in my blog series that consists of 4 parts. Also make sure to check the repository for how it works behind the scenes.
