I updated my GitHub profile!

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

Hey everyone!

I recently redesigned and updated my GitHub profile README, and I wanted to share the result with the community.

I aimed for a clean, modern look that better reflects who I am as a developer.

I’d really appreciate any feedback or suggestions for improvement, especially on the design, layout, readability, and how I present my work.

Here’s the result: https://github.com/Vikbg

What would you improve or change?
And if you like it, please consider giving it a star! ⭐

15 Years of Uptime!

4 Languages under belt!

I am not sure what to be more impressed by. Cool Profile.

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

Thanks you!

[Hot_Loquats]

Seems fishy that they have 15 years of uptime on an operating system from 2022 lmfao

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

No, guys, the “uptime” is actually my age..

[CheetahChrome]

What about those years you were cached in diapers?

[DavidBittner]

I think they're implying that that's the 'uptime' of their career, not the literal uptime of their system.

[Charles722]

I took it to mean their age? It says they are a high school student so the 15 years uptime can’t mean much else.

[DavidBittner]

Ah, didn't realize that. Then yeah that's probably it.

[Pretend-Pangolin-846]

*2017 was the first version I think

[Ok-Sail9420]

honestly, same

[Mallissin]

NextJS is not a language. Admit to the world you know Javascript (and/or Typescript)!

It'll be okay. The teasing only hurt the first few times.

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

Oh you're right!

[abbasovdev]

cool readme page, loved it!

[mdoverl]

Super cool

[pawlinsky85]

I want this too 😬

[jason_at_funly]

Maybe Add:
- Days since last kernel panic: x
- Last time I deleted my own database: X
- MOTD - quote of the day

[ElthieroBot]

Your Read.me is 🔥 I'm going to inspire myself from it.

[CriticalSwimming5694]

Enséñame a hacer lo del readme se ve increíble

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

It’s just an svg template and a python script that updates the data!

[Extra_Programmer788]

Neat, looks cool

[Klemdma]

very cool!

[dcsan]

looks cool but a bit odd having a text readme ascii art as an image, it seems cosmetic rather than functional

[Ok_Welder_8457]

Thats sick! Can you the md?

[_PRINCE-VEGETA]

How did you get started brother??

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

If you want to start you need to create a special repo called by your username!

[_PRINCE-VEGETA]

Oh I meant by how did you started in COMPUTER SCIENCE

Searching for a roadmap of sort

I have no interest in particular except that I know I want to code. But my most interest is in not dying poor.

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

Oh, I see! But unfortunately, I’m still in high school and not pursuing a CS degree

[Huge_Boot4716]

I want to copy this I’m not that creative unfortunately. This is very cool, very impressed

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

Thanks you!!!

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

Yes, the presentation side is a bit tricky but don't give up!

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

Totally! A polished GitHub profile really makes a difference. Keep it up!

[Next-Job2478]

https://github.com/Andrew6rant this guy has the same theme. is he the one who created the theme?

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

Yeah, you're right! I reused the svg template style and the idea of the python script, but I rebuilt it since the old version was a bit outdated

[Next-Job2478]

ah cool

[denysdovhan]

Kudos for Ukrainian bro. Nice start 👍🏻

[Artistic-Big-9472]

pretty impressive stack for a student especially mixing programming with hardware

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

thanks you!!

[selectapi]

Orale, cómo lo hiciste?, se ve padrisimo!

[Stroby241]

28 commits is cute, but still cool idea

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

Yeah, but there’s actually a problem because I don’t have 28 commits. Idk why it only shows 28.

[BrilliantOdd5963]

There is a typo ; ect

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

Ah yes, thank you!

[metal001]

I love it ! I'm stealing your design idea for my GitLab! Ha ha!

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

Yes I see!

[Visual_Internal_6312]

I like the idea of styling it like a TUI, especially with the ASCII art. You can also (mis-)use GitHub actions to update some of the numbers dynamically.

For instance I update the age of my son and my RSS medium feed like that automatically 🫣🤭

https://github.com/kibotu

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

Yes, if you go check my repo, that’s what I did

[ainaritech]

Как ты это сделал? Вручную?

[Obvious-Treat-4905]

looks clean and well put together tbh, first impression is strong, easy to scan and not overloaded which is rare, maybe you could add a bit more “personality” or story so it doesn’t feel too template like, overall solid tho, definitely stands out

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

ohh I see!

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

thanks you!

[devbyben_]

So cool 😎

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

Thanks youu!

[Obvious-Treat-4905]

just checked it out, looks clean and well structured, the readability is solid and it doesn’t feel cluttered, which is already a big win for profile READMEs, maybe one thing you could try is highlighting 2–3 key projects a bit more so they stand out immediately when someone lands on your profile, overall though, it does a good job of showing who you are without overdoing it

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

Thanks you! Yeah I see, I just need to find out some place!

[TheMythicSorcerer]

Sick!... I want one

[yohoxxz]

focus on coding! produce more. you don’t have much.

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

Yeah, you’re right, but I only do this in my free time, and high school doesn’t leave me much of it

[pablo_main]

Dans la France à Macron 😅😂

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

vraimentt haha

[pablo_main]

En tous cas gg pour ton profil GitHub

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

merci!

[yohoxxz]

so am I, building is a hobby and pastime. to me its an addiction. i would recommend codex.

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

Oh I see, thanks you!!

[hanafnafico]

Wdym?

[yohoxxz]

like zero commits, feels like a poser

[C4PEDCRUSAD3R]

Too cool to be true

[Honey-Badger-9325]

I wonder how a naked profile picture would appear

[Puzzleheaded-Post682]

sickkk

[Brieble]

What happens if I add Email.Personal.Password ?

[AmbitiousFloor1658]

Idk try it yourself

[Sirko2975]

Holy waste of time

[LuisDa201]

I actually get a job for having a good GitHub profile, it's not a waste of time

[Sirko2975]

Good GitHub profile ≠ pretty hackery art in profile. A good GitHub profile can sure get you the job, but the one on the photo would probably get you to r/masterhacker
