Github Policeman - find out which of your repositories don't have a LICENSE

Inspired by this Medium article, I built Github Policeman, by means of which I learned about Hooks and making API calls in React.

In essence, it queries the Github API by username, and lets you know licensing statistics for your public Github repos, and gives you the links to all the ones that don't have a license.

you can check out the live demo here, and the Github Repository here!

I would love any and all feedback on this application - thank you for your time!
Keep Hacking!

Small suggestion: Make the "Take me there" link open in a new window. This way it is possible to go back to the projects list.
