If you do add your own DataFlex code repositories to GitHub (in or outside of DataFlexCode) please take the time to add ‘dataflex’ as a 'topic' to your repository settings (using the cog to the right of About), so they are more visible to other DataFlexers on the [https://github.com/topics/dataflex DataFlex Topic page].
You can use the 'DataFlex' topic to make your own DataFlex code repositories on GitHub more visible to other DataFlexers. By classifying your repositories with the dataflex topic (See how [https://docs.github.com/en/github/administering-a-repository/classifying-your-repository-with-topics here]) they will be displayed on the [https://github.com/topics/dataflex DataFlex Topic page].
