Github is becoming a create storage engine for educational content like Tutorials, Blog Posts, etc.
One of the biggest problems with mantaining content is broken links, when the blogpost author writes the article he includes a link to a 3rd party resource, after some times has passed those links could be down because no one maintained them.
It would be ideal to have a github app that checks for broken links on the entire repository and creates issues to fix them. Similar to this one but for xml, json and markdown as well: https://probot.github.io/apps/yamburger/
To develop it you have to use the probot framework based in node.js
