Gotta write an API to supply a github key, get back data, then find good ways to display data in the UI

definitely worth breaking down into different cards based on the research
e.g. research, write api, hook up to ui, revise

This is turning into some simple Github v4 API (GraphQL) queries and React Recoil for glocal state management.
