jigsaw VS github-readme-stats

I decided to choose jigsaw as I am familiar with the technologies it's built with (PHP , Tailwind for styling and Blade as template engine) as it will be easy to customize if needed besides that, it comes with decent amount of features out of the box, I barely did any customization to it, just followed the installation instructions and got started.

Also if anyone knows of any third-party templates for Jigsaw, I can't find any except the default blog and docs that they have in their documentation.

I also would argue that the majority of code I see in other languages is equally or worse than the example you gave.

You can write terribly in any language, Laravel included.

We have ~8 Laravel apps and roughly 40-50 Jigsaw projects that we keep up to date like this.

Take a look at Jigsaw from Tighten: https://jigsaw.tighten.co

Now, as for what runs the site. It is a static site, using Jigsaw as the framework. Jigsaw uses Laravel’s blade templating. Since one of my goals this year is to learn Laravel, it was the perfect fit for my site. GitHub is where I've decided to store my repos, and Netlify watches for changes to my main branch and rebuilds my site.

He has github readme stats and another stats widget showing the languages used. I tried the latter for myself and it seemed to be way off.

A big shoutout to the creators of the README-Stats project for their awesome theme suite!

All that is standard , let's compound this process by adding programming language stats . There's a project on github that we can embed directly into our markdown or html , but we want more so i made a recursive function to fetch all our repositories (The github readme script only fetches the first 100 repos)

You can add a lot of Anurag Hazra‘s GitHub ReadMe Stats features:

The GitHub Readme Stats project by Anurag Hazra generates dynamic statistics about your GitHub activities. This includes your top languages, total contributions, and more. You can use these stats to showcase your skills and dedication.

I didn't figured this on my own, the first time I learned about this feature was through the github-readme-stats project, under the responsive-card-theme section, it showed examples that I've used in my profile README and I've been also using on repositories as well.

You can also add your top repositories or your favorite projects with a title, description, preview, and link. However, there is another way you can do this without README which I will explain very soon. You can add custom styling for repositories, check it out here.

You can find a few different stat widgets on anuraghazra's repo. They are fairly customizable and allow you to hide stats that may not be that flattering or could be misleading.
