It has been crazy to build an engine for this exact reason. You quickly see what you take for granted and what requires work to implement but "appears" effortless. Things that seem so obvious and core you quickly find don't come for free.
A simple example was that yesterday I was trying to debug why my MouseDown event wasn't firing every frame and was just firing once like MousePressed. After some digging in I realized that MouseDown isn't actually a primitive mouse event type in my platform wrapper code (Sokol). You get Up/Down. Doing this 1-to-1 wouldn't give people what they usually want (a MouseDown event that fires every frame), so you've got to figure out how to implement that yourself.
As for the Github, it's all a work in progress! I'm actively working on the engine but it isn't really "released" yet. I've got a very active dev branch and some docs I'm working on before I do a proper "reveal".
As for screenshots - what kind of stuff would you want to see? It's just a 2D engine so it's not like I have awesome graphics to show off. The point of it is that it's a code-only framework, there's no built-in editor or anything. I do want to have runnable embeds though of the demos!
