You picked great live examples! Thank you very much for sharing.

What also makes a GitHub repository attractive to me is when they are using GitHub releases and proper changelogs. Example: github.com/mui/material-ui/release...

Using GitHub pages for API documentation is also important. Example: github.com/vazco/uniforms/tree/gh-...

You can have a look at my GitHub repository as well regarding stats & github actions 🙂

They are not actually for repositories only for profiles, it will look odd if you do the same on your project.

Damn this is really a great article. I know that readmes are important and they make the project even better. But here you mentioned a few things about which I was completely unaware of. Thanks for sharing!

Nice write up and something I will be using for future projects. There is another piece of screen recording software I thought useful to mention it is called Open Broadcaster Software (OBS) obsproject.com/. You can capture a whole screen or specific windows or a section of a screen. Best of all it is free and open source.

I updated the article to include some tools. You can use asciicinema to record your CLI application, or loom to record generally any area in your screen.

Automatic Subtitle Generator Online - Easyssub.com

Thank you for your article and the tools you shared.
I recently discovered a free auto subtitle generator
easyssub.com/tools/auto-subtitle-g...
, EasySub transcribed subtitles with an accuracy rate of over 95%. It also supports free multi-language subtitle translation. It can also edit videos, add watermarks, titles, and so on. In short, it feels too practical, so share it with everyone, hoping to help everyone.
