Daily GitHub Trending Email

This workflow sends a daily email with the trending GitHub repositories. It uses the GitHub trending API to fetch the data and then sends a formatted email with the repository details.

The email includes the repository name, link, description, language, and stars. This workflow is perfect for developers who want to stay up-to-date with the latest trends in the GitHub community.

The workflow uses a daily trigger to fetch the data and then processes it using a series of nodes, including an HTTP request, data cleaning, and email sending. It's a great example of how n8n can be used to automate tasks and improve productivity.
