## Config details

TB is based on `Github API` and `Github issues`. Before your starting, please [create a new respository](https://github.com/new) and add some issues for your blog articles, default respository name is `blog`, of course you can set your own.

If you only have empty respository and don't have issues yet, after generating TB, you will have an entry to create issues.

### Token

The first step is to generate your [token](https://github.com/settings/tokens/new), which is for Github API request validation, and please check following options:

* [x] repo
    * [x] repo:status
    * [x] repo_deployment
    * [x] public_repo
* [x] user
    * [x] read:user
    * [x] user:email

And add the token description and click `Generate token` to get your token.
