Why not just use the gh package?

Can you elaborate?

The gh already has functions to list/create/get/add comment to/ a issue. So why implement them again?

Ok, yes that would make sense.

Given the state of the projet (main collaborator inactive and just me & purcell maintaining), probably that no one will be available to do the work.

PR are welcome tho :wink:

When I first created this repo my idea was to learn more about Emacs programming, particularly modes. The reason why I didn't use the gh was because I wanted to understand how to perform HTTP requests from Emacs Lisp, rather than adding a dependency that did things without me thinking and understanding.

As @Silex said, PRs are welcome!
