  • Simple but effective

    This plugin is a very robust little tool for getting markdown file content into any WordPress page using the simple to configure short codes. It works with the new GitHub "Fine-grained" personal access tokens and easily handles private repos that are accessed with SAML SSO organization settings. It would be great if they are able to add more content types, for example, I'd love to be able to display code samples from Github Python py files.
