Description

Github [released all the data on its users and commits on Google Big Query](https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/public-data/github). It could be interesting to use it instead of the Python based scraper we are using [here](https://github.com/HacksHackersAfrica/github-africa).

Some interesting blog posts on using this data can be found [here](https://hackernoon.com/the-map-i-got-for-africa-8c8a958c686d).
