## Project Structure

The project consists of several key components:

- `GithubAPIController`: This class is a REST controller that interacts with the GitHub API. It fetches pull requests from a specified repository and publishes them to a Kafka topic.

- `Utils`: This class contains utility methods, such as `getTodayMidnight()`, which returns the current date at midnight in the "America/Toronto" timezone.

- `PullRequest` and `Label`: These are model classes that represent the structure of a pull request and label respectively in the GitHub API.
