We’re happy to announce Octokit, our new lineup of GitHub-maintained client libraries for the GitHub API.
Today, we’re making our first two libraries available.
octokit/octokit.rb
Octokit.rb (formerly pengwynn/octokit) has been developed by the Ruby community over several years and provides access to the GitHub API in idiomatic Ruby.
octokit/octokit.objc
OctoKit has been extracted from GitHub for Mac by the Mac team and is a Cocoa and Cocoa Touch framework for interacting with the GitHub API, built using AFNetworking, Mantle, and ReactiveCocoa.
