Mercy Fork is your go-to tool for rescuing abandoned or unmaintained repositories! 🛠️✨

Ever stumbled upon a great project only to find it’s been left in the dust? Mercy Fork swoops in to save the day by helping you find popular and well-maintained forks. If no good alternatives exist, you can easily create your own Mercy Fork 😉 and keep the project alive.

Getting Started

Once you have cloned the repository, you can get a set of test data by running the following PowerShell script:

./TestData/GetReposFromGithub.ps1

This will download a set of repository data from GitHub to the TestData directory. You can then run dotnet build or use Visual Studio to build the solution.

Running the solution using dotnet run --project MercyFork.AppHost or Visual Studio will start the Aspire host project. You can then click on the appropriate link to open the Web App. Navigate to the "Repos" page to see the list of repositories.
