It really freaked me out how accurate it was. It detected me perfectly even with Firefox+uBlock

I never know what do to with these GitHub pages. Can anyone give me a step by step to try this?

Just open this link. It will show you a bunch of details about your device/browser.
The other GitHub link will show you the source code, which you could review yourself or maybe help contribute to the project.

So what does all this data actually mean? I've looked at the GitHub page but it's more like a technical manual than an explanation of what I'm actually looking at!

IIRC, it stops working whenever you disable JavaScript.
