• Consider gh_repos.

library(tidyverse) |> suppressPackageStartupMessages()
library(repurrrsive)
library(jsonlite) |> suppressPackageStartupMessages()
is.list(gh_repos)

## [1] TRUE

repos <- tibble(json = gh_repos)

## # A tibble: 6 × 1

##   <list>     
## 1 <list [30]>
## 2 <list [30]>
## 3 <list [30]>
## 4 <list [26]>
## 5 <list [30]>
## 6 <list [30]>

#str(repos)

• Now that was overwhelming!

• A tibble with a column of lists
