Maxime, first of all, thanks for the cool idea 👍
I have a couple of questions/suggestions:

  1. (on Jay's concern) Why not try to use dev.to API's POST request and get an article ID with the response?
  2. Didn't you try to replace Travis with Github Actions? This way one gets the opportunity to use the workflow with a private repo

Hi Fyodor, thanks :)!

1) It'd be great for sure to have something in command line and we've got an issue here github.com/maxime1992/dev-to-git/i... if you have further ideas on that please share there

2) I did not as I'm not yet familiar with github actions. I'd be happy to have a PR if you feel like it though! :) Could you please open an issue first there github.com/maxime1992/dev-to-git/i... so we can discuss it and then we can talk about a PR

Thanks
