Today we're releasing a small but nice feature called "GitHub profile preview". This adds a widget in the process sidebar that lists a candidate's GitHub repositories if they've chosen to add one. It shows their GitHub username, a list of repositories, and a button for viewing their full profile. Each repository contains information such as

• Title
• Description
• Amount of stars
• Amount of forks
• Main programming language

If you click one, it will open up the full repository on github.com, where you can read the README file, clone it, or read some of the code. We hope this should make the way you screen candidates even faster, and help you gage someone's ability to write code.
