What is GitHub Profile?
GitHub profile is a new function that has been released recently. That allows us to add some information(blue circle part
) to our GitHub profile page.
How to create your GitHub Profile
Step 1
Create a new repo and the repo name must be your username
The following readme will be generated by GitHub.
<!--
**koji/koji** is a ✨ _special_ ✨ repository because its `README.md` (this file) appears on your GitHub profile.
Here are some ideas to get you started:
- 🔠I’m currently working on ...
- 🌱 I’m currently learning deno/flutter/coreML
- 👯 I’m looking to collaborate on something fun
- 🤔 I’m looking for help with ...
- 💬 Ask me about ...
- 📫 How to reach me: ...
- 😄 Pronouns: ...
- âš¡ Fun fact: ...
-->
Step 2
Edit Readme.md
Tip1 Adding Image
You can use 2 ways to upload images.
The one is to add an image to your repository and the other is to use an issue to upload. The way to use the issue is very easy since the comment form generates a tag, ![image_name](image_url)
automatically.
Tip2 Adding Badge
In this case, I added dev.to
, twitter, Linkedin, and Gmail badge to the profile.
What you need to add is to change <yours>
to yours.
<p align="center">
<a href="https://dev.to/<yours>"><img src="https://img.shields.io/badge/DEV.TO-%230A0A0A.svg?&style=for-the-badge&logo=dev-dot-to&logoColor=white" /> </a>
<a href="https://twitter.com/<yours>"><img src="https://img.shields.io/badge/twitter-%231DA1F2.svg?&style=for-the-badge&logo=twitter&logoColor=white" /></a>
<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/<yours>/"><img src="https://img.shields.io/badge/linkedin-%230077B5.svg?&style=for-the-badge&logo=linkedin&logoColor=white" /></a>
<a href="mailto:<yours>?subject=Came%20from%20Github"><img src="https://img.shields.io/badge/gmail-%23D14836.svg?&style=for-the-badge&logo=gmail&logoColor=white" /></a>

Tip3 Adding dev.to feed
Step 1
Add the following to your Readme.
<!-- BLOG-POST-LIST:START -->
<!-- BLOG-POST-LIST:END -->
step 2
Create a yml file to use GitHub action
.
Create .github/workflows
folders and create blog-post-workflow.yml
.
Then you will need to change feed_list
to yours.
feed_list
can be blog feed(medium & WordPress) and youtube channel feed.
You can see the details here!
name: Latest blog post workflow
on:
schedule:
# Runs every hour
- cron: '0 * * * *'
workflow_dispatch:
jobs:
update-readme-with-blog:
name: Update this repo's README with latest blog posts
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- uses: gautamkrishnar/blog-post-workflow@master
with:
feed_list: "https://dev.to/feed/kojikanao"
Then, you need to run an action. This step will take around 30 sec.
Mine is here.
