I want to find some newly-created Github projects which will be easy to understand and contribute to. But in GitHub there's only a "explore" function that lists the most popular projects. How do I find the projects that are not so popular or mature? Do I need to write a program to query their developer API for this information, or is there an easier way to find newly-created projects on Github? Thanks.
On their search details page github lists some ways to find this information:
https://help.github.com/articles/searching-repositories
You can filter repositories based on times of creation, or when they
were last updated. For repository creation, you can use the created
qualifier;
Example:
ruby created:>2014-01-01
Matches repositories with the word "ruby" that were created after Jan 1, 2014
Good luck, and I'm glad you are wanting to contribute to an open source project!

I have made a github webpage using R studio that I'm more or less happy with. Yay! I used the following tutorial to make it. Trouble is I cannot seem to 'find' it when I google it (even though I know what I'm looking for).
StackExchange::Webmasters have suggested I may need to add a sitemap.xml.
Question: Do I really need a sitemap.xml? If so, how do I go about making one using R studio, and where does it belong in my github pages directory?
Google crawlers index the web 4 times a day (at least they used to, maybe more now). I see you last updated your repository a month ago.
If you search site:cpryan.github.io Google is supposed to return the pages it has indexed.
You can also claim your site on Google's WebMaster site (by putting a small file in your repo with a code Google give you) to see even more information about what Google has or maybe has not indexed.

Would using GitHub as a work experience portfolio, including personal projects in various languages/frameworks, be a good practice when seeking employment?
Yes. You'll want to target the specific companies you are applying to, as well. For example, does the company you are targeting value, use, or promote open source projects? Then find some contributions you can make, especially if that company has their own open source projects on GitHub.com.
Definitely host your own projects with a very clear README.md that explains the purpose of the project, anything that showcases design decisions you made, and clear instructions on how to launch/run your project.
No, Since github functions as a site where you host your codes, employers won't have time to access and examine each of your codes.
Yes,
Your future employer may not check out your code, but it will prove that development is your hobby and not only your job.

... or the shoemaker's children go barefoot?
I would like to fix some styling & have an idea for the feature (and a lot of free time) but I cannot find any github.com page on github.com.
GitHub isn't open-source, but you can apply your ideas on an (open-source) GitHub-look-alike:
GitLab
A ruby application with its source code here).
They accept suggestions and pull requests
gogs.io (less active than gitea)
Update 2015: you also have other GitHub-look-alike in Go:
gitea.com
GitBLit
I was wondering the same thing!
They seem to have some open source code but not the entire code base.
check it out here: https://github.com/github

Is there any way I can change this profile element that seems to be what language I tend to program in?
As you can see now, it currently says "Perl" (I've never coded in perl! My work is usually in C++)
I've seen a few different people on my follow/following list with their main languages separated by commas:
I couldn't find this is any of the profile settings pages, is it automatically detected?
It is automatically detected from the languages in your repositories. The open source Linguist library developed by Github is used to detect languages in those repositories.
There is no way to edit the listed languages via settings.

Are there any open source projects any of you would recommend to follow or contribute toward, including those already documented among the zf contributors, to add zend framework scaffolding of crud functionality for rapid development as found in most competitors frameworks?
As a contributor of not only the language and framework, but also as a user of zf on a daily basis, I know this is a topic of interest and I feel professional developers like you would find here would have something to contribute toward my question and finding a library that is underway that can be contributed to.
Still pointing out one Repo that generates a new module with folder structure, config and module class
Inforbiro / ZF2-Code-Generator
While personally i feel this to be more troublesome than doing it by hand, it's a first step only. Though it appears development already has stopped, for now.
If ever (and i'm pretty sure) there will be a ZF2-Tool, you'll find it at the zf-commons repository

Sorry, apparently this is not an appropriate question to ask, i've learned, at stackoverflow. Didn't realize this kind of question wasn't allowed since it doesn't have code I guess.
