Congrats! 🍾
My main project, although very niche (a programming language aimed towards music) has 149 and is on github since 2016!!!

You surf on the wave plus nicely communicate about it 👍

Thanks for some great examples. I had not been aware of aligning texts or images until I saw this one: github.com/harshkumarkhatri/harshk...

Thus, as a part of your README.md you can use both options:

  • <p align="center">...</p>
  • <img align="right" />

This is actually awesome! ♥

But there are still some repos like → github.com/wesbos/wesbos
I wonder when he realizes and renames his website project repo to something other than his username.😀

He still needed to click the enable button. I'm sure he is aware.

I don't want to be that guy, but the title is kind of misleading and makes you think there would be general tips and tricks to promote any project. You don't really talk about the topic you put in the title.

I congratulate you for the stars, but this is basically another "How To Create A GitHub Profile README" post. The title could be a tad more accurate.
You got me, this time! :D

Shouldn't this "repo" be an article? It seems like a list of links 🤔
