I built Student Stats Cards: GitHub README cards for students

Most GitHub profile stat cards are developer-first: stars, commits, streaks, languages.

That is useful, but students often have a different set of signals: research papers, LeetCode progress, merged open-source PRs, study streaks, GitHub stars and followers.

So I built Student Stats Cards, a student-friendly fork of stats-cards.

It adds a /api/student endpoint that generates a clean SVG card for GitHub profile READMEs.

I built this because a student profile is often more than code. For internships, research applications and open-source contribution, it helps to make scattered signals visible in one place.

Future ideas:

  • Google Scholar citation cards
  • Zotero publication cards
  • AnkiWeb / study streak cards
  • automatic merged PR counting
  • better themes for student portfolios

Feedback and contributions are welcome.
