LED Ticker Setup

How this stays private

Everything about your sign (settings, API keys and the GitHub token) is encrypted with your password before it is saved to GitHub (AES-256, the same kind of encryption password managers use). Without the password, the stored files are unreadable. Your password never leaves this browser.

Step 1: Make a GitHub access token

  1. Open GitHub, New fine-grained token.
  2. Name it LED Ticker. Set Expiration to the longest option offered.
  3. Under Repository access, choose Only select repositories and pick led-ticker.
  4. Under Permissions, then Repository permissions, set Contents to Read and write. Leave everything else alone.
  5. Click Generate token and copy it.

The token can only touch this one repo. When it expires, come back here and choose "renew" below.

Step 2: Lock it with a password
