GH Profile README Generator (https://rahuldkjain.github.io/gh-profile-readme-generator/)

There is a GitHub Action that keeps the blog posts list updated, but the reference in the tool is outdated. I already sent a Pull Request with the necessary change, but you can copy it from my repository and adjust it as needed.

The GitHub Profile README Generator, developed by Rahul Jain, is a web-based tool designed to simplify the process of creating a captivating README file for your GitHub profile. This tool offers an intuitive interface and a wide range of customization options, allowing you to add unique elements like a profile picture, bio, social media links, project showcases, badges, and more.

Active github that shows you're still developing personal projects. Make sure your readme's are user friendly and explain what the project is for, the intended audience..a developer can run your application and what steps or things needed to install. Mention these projects in Resume. Use tools like (https://rahuldkjain.github.io/gh-profile-readme-generator/) to include on your github by creating a readme.md repository that is the same as your github name.

2. accessing an app running on a windows through rdp, either as a full desktop or as a standalone window.[1] OK granted you are still using windows in that case, in the background, but you can do that only sporadically by launching a cloud windows vm instance for the small amount of time in a year you definitely need that dirty OS for personnal use.

Obviously YMMV but the barrier is mostly psychological imho.

[1] I think there was a project to facilitate that for office, adobe applications called winapps, see the different active forks here:

there is also this:

I know about https://github.com/techgaun/active-forks, however this "only" shows the time of last activity which is not too bad, but not exactly what I'd like to have, since this provides no indication on the (possible) progress of the project (if one could measure progress in units of commits)...

I stumbled upon this tool: https://github.com/techgaun/active-forks. But it didn't help, it didn't work on my repo.

It is abandoned for 4 years, found most active fork(nice tool) of this, which is up to date and have cutting edge tools awesome-foss/awesome-sysadmin

mentat was archived by mozilla back in 2017, but there are a bunch of forks. Because github is dumb and has a terrible interface for exploring forks [0], I used the Active GitHub Forks tool [1] that helped to find:

qpdb/mentat [2] seems to be the largest (+131 commits) and most recently modified (May this year) fork of mozilla/mentat.

[0]: https://github.com/mozilla/mentat/network/members - Seriously, how am I supposed to use this? Hundreds of entries, but no counts for stars, contributors, or commits, no details about recent commits. Just click every one?

[2]: https://github.com/qpdb/mentat

Yeah, there is this tool: https://techgaun.github.io/active-forks/index.html

I'm really surprised Github doesn't leverage their data for better discovery. Instead you get forks that are second-class citizens and should never be used for active development. For example, they don't get watched by default and their code is not searchable.
