To research - how can we have users report an issue and automatically have that issue post in Github or Slack? TBD...

I found something! https://gitreports.com/issue/codeforkansascity/Neighborhood-Dashboard

See how that works for you!

Here's what the result of the page is.

https://github.com/codeforkansascity/Neighborhood-Dashboard/issues/109

What we can do is provide a link to this page, and allow for the user to send issues without needing a github account. Granted, the issue will be made under my name, but it does include contact and email from the person reporting the issue.

I tried the gitreports link a couple of times, and it no longer seems to report an issue. It fails silently, without any indication that an error has occurred. It's possible that the underlying OAuth authorization has expired, but I can't check that. I'm not comfortable using my own ID for this service, as it requests broad access to all the user's repositories. Apparently, this is a limitation of Github's API. In any case, I'm going to backburner this for the present and move on to other issues.
