Ferramenta de coleta de dados GitHub Token Donation

Abstract

GitHub, one of the most popular tools for managing and sharing Git repositories, provides ways for anyone to access information about its platform, however, it restricts the types and amount of information that can be obtained, imposing barriers for researchers who need to collect data in large quantities over extended periods. To address this situation, it is necessary to somehow increase the imposed rate limits. That was when we propose creating an application that utilizes GitHub's authentication flow, allowing anyone registered on the website the option to support by donating their request limit for as long as they wish.
