Creating a GitHub App

About GitHub Apps. GitHub Apps are first-class actors within GitHub . A GitHub App acts on its own behalf, taking actions via the API directly using its own identity, which means you don’t need to maintain a bot or service account as a separate user.

Free apps are encouraged in GitHub Marketplace and are a great way to offer open source services.
