Problem Statement

Users need to enter a Personal Access Token (PAT) to use the Tracker page, but there is no guidance on how to generate one. This can be confusing, especially for first-time users, and may make it harder for them to use the application.

Proposed Solution

Add a small helper link labeled "How to generate?" below the Personal Access Token input field. The link should open GitHub's official documentation for creating Personal Access Tokens in a new tab.

Expected Behavior

A helper link labeled "How to generate?" is displayed below the Personal Access Token field.
Clicking the link opens GitHub's Personal Access Token documentation in a new tab.
The link uses subtle styling and does not disrupt the existing layout.

Why This Improvement Helps

This enhancement will make the Tracker page more user-friendly by providing immediate guidance to users who do not know how to generate a Personal Access Token.

🔄️ Additional Information

An alternative would be to add explanatory text or a tooltip. However, a direct link to GitHub's official documentation is more useful because it provides step-by-step instructions for generating a Personal Access Token.
