The Mission:

Make a WordPress plugin that will read that data and display it in a WordPress page using a shortcode.

• Create a github account.
• Read data from the Github public API. https://developer.github.com/v3/
• Install Guzzle into the WordPress using composer.
• Request the .json file from GitHub using Guzzle
• There should be a shortcode that will allow the editor to choose the number of repositories to list as well as what username to use. The plugin should be default to ‘octocat’.
• This plugin should also be callable using a function in the template code.
• Bootstrap should be included in the project using bower and processed through Gulp or Grunt.
• The output HTML should be styled using basic Bootstrap.
• Bootstrap should be loaded in the page through the plugin.
• There is the potential to add on a couple of extra steps here.
• Commit the plugin to the repo with a proper .gitignore file ( assuming this is locally developed and not a distributed plugin )
