    Config files for my GitHub profile.

    Having a nice looking Github profile is a huge plus for getting freelance work and introducing yourself to the world. On top of that, it doesn't take much work to set one up because there are numerous tools that you can make use of to have a snazzy profile without much effort. Recently, I took the time to actually put together a nice looking profile and thought I would share some of the things I learned. Let's take a look at 3 basic parts of a profile.

    And give people a way to get a hold of you or find out more about you. Personally, I posted links to my Twitter, Dev.to, and LinkedIn. I feel like that gives people 3 very different ways to get a hold of me, depending on what they are looking for. Here is a useful repo that contains most of the main icons.

  • awesome-badges

    😎 A curated list of GitHub badges for your next project

    I personally made an unordered bold list to title each of the categories of tools/language I use. After that, I added some badges of the key languages and tools that I feel like I have a decent amount experience with. There is a very handy list of shield.io badges with accompanying markdown available at this repo.

  • github-readme-stats

    :zap: Dynamically generated stats for your github readmes

    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.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
