💻 How to turn GitHub projects into coding inspiration

In this tutorial, you will learn how to transform any public GitHub repository into structured documentation that you can use as inspiration for building similar projects in your coding environment, like Cursor.

Step-by-step:

  1. Search GitHub for public repositories related to your project idea

  2. Copy the repository URL and replace “github.com” with “gittodoc.com” to generate clean documentation

  3. In your coding environment, start a new project and use “@addnew” to import the GitToDoc URL as a reference

  4. Build your own version and enhance it with follow-up features: “Add batch generation” or “Include custom styling options”
