Help wanted: using the github API with authentication

Bugs Ahoy retrieves issues from Github for certain categories (such as B2G and Test Automation). Unfortunately, I learned recently that unauthenticated API users are now limited to 60 requests an hour, and that means that these categories often end up broken. I really want to fix this by being an authenticated user, but OAuth scares me. I would dearly appreciate someone fearless to help me get my github authentication ducks in a row so new contributors can see the full range of bugs available to them. Bugs Ahoy is entirely a client-side app written in HTML/CSS/JS, so bear that in mind when volunteering. Thanks in advance!
