Issue: Data Not Fetched Correctly by GitHub Scraper

[utsavjosh1]

Problem Description

When using the GitHub scraper package in my portfolio project, I noticed discrepancies in the fetched data compared to my actual GitHub profile. Specifically:

• Repository Count: The package reports 40 repositories, while my GitHub profile lists 42.
• Star Count: The package displays 22 stars, though my profile shows 2 stars.

This results in inaccurate data representation, which can affect applications relying on precise GitHub metrics.

@JoshiUtsav thanks for informing us. This is GitHub (MSFT) changing their UI to break scraping. 😕
We can update the selector and it will work again. 🧑‍💻 ⏳

Why is there a CORS issue in production?

Are you attempting use this client-side?
We have only used it via Node/Deno and it works fine server-side.

Using this in the Next.js app.

Next.js should be able to run it all server-side. Where have you deployed it to? 🤷‍♂️
