SVGcode VS shields

Raster Image to SVG Converter

here are some options -- potrace is free, or https://svgco.de/... there's also this extension that puts them in an a1111 extension. Illustrator also has a function for it, if you have access

Thanks to SVGCode (https://github.com/tomayac/SVGcode) which did already my idea to compile POTRACE into WebASM/JS so to get rid of exectuables and faster inbrowser-vectorizing (the guy in the input example image is Richard Feynman)

Oh op use this for png to svg conversion if you do not have better Ai or pro design tools. https://svgco.de

This issue was about experimenting with SVGCode to see if it could be used to convert raster images to SVGs. I blogged about this process in my last post. I created a pull request which demoed the results of my research by including several SVGs that I created using SVGCode, Adobe Illustrator and Inkscape. Overall, I think that Inkscape produced the most consistent results for coloured and black and white images compared to other tools I tried, which I mentioned in my PR.

In a previous post, I mentioned working on an issue for converting raster images to SVGs. This week, I did some research on the tool recommended in the issue, SVGCode, as well as other popular tools and in this post I will be discussing some of what I learned after trying them out. For the tools that I tried, I wanted to find something that is free and easy to use, while still creating high quality SVGs, as there are a lot of images to convert. (Disclaimer: I'm pretty new to working with images and image editing software so I'm probably not using all the right terminology here, but I'm trying to learn!)

Thanks for the kind words! The documentation is still missing (tracked in part as https://github.com/tomayac/SVGcode/issues/19), but Potrace, the library SVGcode is based upon, has detailed information in a PDF on all parameters: http://potrace.sourceforge.net/potracelib.pdf.

He has many Shields badges

Veja no site shields.io. Segue as que eu mais uso:

It's only possible because of Shields Project, Simple Icons & beloved all Contributors. We do respect & love our all contributors.

Badges are a great visual, and there are all kinds of badges. You just have to go to https://shields.io/, copy the code of the desired badge, and add it to your repo. You can use a badge to demonstrate the project's license, for example:

Adding GitHub Stats For adding cards and stats for your GitHub activity, I recommend using github-readme-stats. You can customize your stat cards with different layouts and themes. Here's an example where I added GitHub stats to my profile. Adding Quotes Adding random quotes to your profile can add a nice touch for visitors. I found github-readme-quotes to be useful for doing just that. Here's what it looks like on my profile. I personally like to add quotes to provide some value to my profile visitors. More Ideas For adding more infographics to your profile, I recommend checking out metrics. This is one of the most starred repositories on GitHub with the github-profile topic, so I couldn't leave this out. Then I found this beautiful resource beautify-github-profile, where you can find more ways to customize your profile. If you're also feeling adventurous, you can explore the github-profile topic here. The repositories are sorted by the number of stars by default. Feel free to explore repositories with the github-profile topic. You might even find ones that aren't used as much but are just what you need. GitHub Profile Achievements While this is not related to customizing your GitHub profile's README.md, I feel the need to include it. If you go to your GitHub profile, you'll notice an Achievements section on the left sidebar. These achievements are fun to collect and can improve your overall GitHub profile. To learn more about what achievements are available and how to get them, check out the list of GitHub profile achievements. Conclusion To recap, we walked through how to create your GitHub profile. Then I showed how to format your profile with GitHub Flavored Markdown and HTML. After that, I shared where you can get inspiration for your own profile. Finally, I gave tips and resources on ways to customize your profile. I hope this can help you in making your awesome GitHub profile. I'd love to see what you can come up with!

I just read the above article by the official rust blog. I wanted to ask what is "feature" and "badge" refered to as in this blog? what does it mean? At some places "shields.io badge " is mentioned. Are "badge" and "feature" some rust terminologies? It will be helpful if someone explains me this blog post in fewer words.

Avoid using an unordered list for this section, as it can become challenging to read. Instead, the key is to categorize and group your skills and certifications, making them more organized and easier to manage. The specific edits required for this section depend on the number of skills, certifications, and other factors. If you have an extensive list, consider utilizing small badges from shields.io where applicable and hide outdated information.

I would highly recommend adding (a few!) badges to any repository that you plan on publishing. You can get some great badges from https://shields.io/ along with the info on how to actually generate them. If your repository is public, this should be easy enough. I would say to avoid spamming a ton and having your README looks like a technicolor dreamland. Just having things like package health, SourceRank and dependencies can help inspire faith in a smaller project. Having that can set you apart by showing that your code works! 😄
