Chris Bongers on August 05, 2020

I find my GitHub profile pretty important when it comes to being an active developer. Unfortunately, most of my projects are private due to busines...

Thank you, so, much! I was able to add a video, with the .gif being the thumbnail!

Check me out ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฟ github.com/supercodingninja

As soon as I learn how to properly resize image (I have not figure out the size I need to get the image to show, when I change it's size), to use and ... vs. ...; because this will allow me to use a target="_blank", and open a new ab will appear.

I loved this. I am still trying to learn if I can change the font color and background color because I would prefer my bio presented as darkmode:

Interesting idea, not sure what you could inject to make those adjustments.
You could use a text-white class to make the text white, I'm not sure what the background class is for GitHub.
