FirstCommit: Micro Tool

I was about to finish my Friday plant duty when I started thinking about a project I had done before and when I had started it. To find the date, I tried looking for a tool that could give me the first commit of a project. My search led me to a few tools, but all were focused on personal repositories; none were focused on tracking the development of a specific repository. After some time searching, I got frustrated and decided to start building the tool myself.

Nowadays, creating software is cheaper: just a few prompts and suddenly you have a functional site deployed on Vercel that your colleagues can access. A few more prompts and bug fixes later, and I had a simple website that I could confidently publish knowing it could be used without any problem.

It’s made with Python, and you can check the code here: https://github.com/chris-cadev/first-commit/
