Whatsupstream is a tool (CLI actually) which runs as a background process and tracks the activity associated with any Open Source repositories you tell it. (for now, it tracks issues)
Say, you want to be notified as soon as possible whenever an issue with good first issue and sig/node labels is created in Kubernetes
Just tell Whatsupstream (configure it, it's easy :P) about it and this tool will simply run behind the scenes and raise a desktop notification on your computer as soon it sees such kind of issue.
Benefit?
You can pick that issue up instantly before anyone picks it up :P, work on it and be a proud OSS contributor :D
PS: you can configure it for countless repositories as per your liking.
Here are instructions to setup and use whatsupstream.
Just have make installed in your computer, rest all will be handled automatically for you.
Behind the scenes, this project entirely runs on GoLang but if you don't have it, no worries, make will set it up for you :)
