What this source shows

GitHub's Repositories REST API lets you list and retrieve repository metadata such as owner, topics, languages and contributors, and manage repository settings. Read a repository's license before reusing its code.

Rights and reuse: Repository-specific; public code without a license is not reusable
Access: API and repository source

Why it matters

Code being visible on GitHub does not mean you may reuse it, because the repository's license decides.
