Hintman is a GitHub application that automatically submits reviews to opened pull requests in your repositories with inline hints. It heavily makes the use of the GitHub suggestions feature, so that all the hints could be applied in one click.
⚠️ WARNING: Hintman is in early beta phase. ⚠️
ReferencesHintman is inspired by the Hitman video game series. The standard replies of Hintman are based on the quotes from the game. And the current avatar is the hint as well.
