Looking for inspiration? Check the Awesome GitHub Profile Readme repository, which contains a curated list of GitHub profiles with nice README customizations that you can use as reference to build your own.

I stumbled upon a list of awesome GitHub Profile READMEs and spent quite some time reviewing them for inspiration. There are some very creative folks out there that have found interesting ways to express themselves and their projects. Those and other resources go into more examples of the things you can do:

Here you go!

With an account, you can create codebases, see your code, interact with other users, document your code, track your work, see stats about the code you've written, and much more. In today's job market, a Github profile can easily be your software development portfolio.

Here's a site to look up other people's profiles. You can also find a list of tools to help you build the best possible Github ReadMe. There are plenty of profile generators out there to make your life easier.

Github portfolio just means you update your readme page on Github (like https://github.com/abhisheknaiidu/awesome-github-profile-readme), which i could see as useful for providing information on your previous work on Github. it doesn't take long to do (you're just editing a markdown file). i don't have my first job yet, so i have to make a portfolio which demonstrates that yes i can build a website and do basic web dev stuff. with your experience, i doubt they're going to look for a portfolio for you. im rooting for anyone who wants to "compete with the younger folk". im 28 but i have no professional webdev experience (I have degrees in neuroscience and an MD, don't ask). i don't like kids getting the better of me, so I'm all for learning new things. my best guess is these technical questions you're having trouble with might be either really advanced senior level stuff in the role you're looking at or the algorithm based questions like LeetCode or HackerRank. If you haven't done a technical interview in decades, my guess is the nature of interviews might not be the same as you remember. definitely tons of youtube videos and websites to help prepare for those though.

Your GitHub README is like the first impression of your projects and skills. You want it to look neat, informative, and maybe a little fun. One easy way to spice it up? Use github-readme-stats!

The next section displays my GitHub data. I found this widget from Anurag Hazra that pulls your total stars earned, total commits(current year), total PRs, total issues, and contributed to(last year). You can check it here: Github Stats Go check the documentation as it offers a lot of customization for your needs. For me, I just used the default view and changed the theme.
