πŸš€ Github Hidden Feature: Profile README

Github has a brand new secret feature! Now you can setup a README for your entire profile. Here's how mine looks: godcrampy

To enable this, make a repository with the same name as your username:

Alt Text

Then add a README.md which will then be displayed on your profile page. And that's it!
Thanks, Github for this super cool feature!


🌟 I made some Cheat-Sheets
πŸš€ Stalk me on Instagram | Github | Twitter | Website
πŸ˜„ Have a wonderful day!
