GitHub Profile README Generator
Generate GitHub profile README easily with the latest add-ons
GitHub Profile README Generator is an OSS(Open Source Software) that provides a cool interface to generate GitHub profile README in markdown. The tool aims to provide a hassle-free experience to add trending addons as profile visitors count, GitHub stats, dynamic blog posts, etc. The profile should be neat and minimal to give a clear overview of the work. Non-uniform icons, too much content, too many images/gifs distract visitors to see your actual work. To solve this, GitHub Profile README Generator came into existence. So many developers contributed to the project and made it more awesome to use. You can contribute too to make it grow even further. The profile README is created by creating a new repository that’s the same name as your username. For example, my GitHub username is rahuldkjain so I created a new repository with the name rahuldkjain. Note: at the time of this writing, in order to access the profile README feature, the letter-casing must match your GitHub username. -

Each larger open source project has its own style guide, a series of conventions on how to write code for the project (sometimes more arbitrary).

The meaning of "style" covers a wide range, from "variables use camelCase" to "never use global variables" to "never use exceptions". The English version of the project maintains the programming style guidelines used in Google. If the project you are modifying originates from Google, you may be directed to the English version of the project page to understand the style used by the project.

The codebase includes a backend that handles ingestion, parsing, and transformation of documentation sources into a static site structure, as well as the client side UI code for browsing, searching, and reading docs in a responsive interface. DevDocs supports offline usage: users can download sets of docs for use without an internet connection, benefiting from caching and compact compressed storage. The repository includes scripts for updating doc sources, building, and deploying the documentation site. Because it is meant as a reference tool, performance and usability (e.g. fast search, minimal latency) are emphasized in design.
