Simply add your GitHub username and the profile summary for GitHub online tool instantly gets you a number of charts summarizing your repositories, commits, and stars, grouped by language.
See an example of the kind of visualization get in the featured image above, showing the data for my profile. You can also run it locally. And, even better, the source code is available on GitHub itself.
OctoProfile
OctoProfile lets you visualize GitHub profiles with charts. It’s built using Next.js and the GitHub API. This one more than focusing on showing your activity focuses on showing your main repositories and some stats about them. It would be great if you could also show the repos of the organizations where you belong to as more and more projects are under an organization account. The project itself is also open source.
Github Resume Generator
Enter your username here on the homepage here and click Generate. We request your public data from GitHub GraphQL API v4 and generate your resume. Save the resume by clicking on print in the navigation bar and adjust margins as required. (Please use Laptop/ Desktop for better experience) If you’re using chrome, make sure that Background Graphics is checked in more settings options while saving the document.
CodeTrace
There is even a tool, called CodeTrace, that claims to perform a real-time skills assessment of a developer’s expertise based on the GitHub profile.
To be clear, I’m not saying I like this or that you should follow this “trend”. But if you are actively looking for a new job and do contribute to projects on GitHub, you may want to take this opportunity to stand out and improve your chances of getting selected by improving the visualization of your GitHub profile.
Profile Summary For GitHub
Enter GitHub username. GitHub profile summary is built with Javalin 5.0.0 (kotlin web framework) and chart.js (visualization). Source is on GitHub.
Metrics
Metrics is a collection of over 30+ pluginn (and 200 configuration options!), each one displaying different stats and dimensions of your GitHub life. The data is rendered as SVG, Markdown, PDF and JSON helping you to create really nice infographics about your GitHub activity.
Plugin cover a large variety of topics, from your commit activity, your most frequently used programming languages, licenses, organizations you belong to, coding habits,… you name it!. You can enable/disable each of the plugins at will to put your best face forward.
GHUser
Ghuser.io aimed to enhance the existing profile visualization in GitHub. Some things they add on top of the standard GitHub profile display are all the repos you have contributed, a different repo sorting, transferring stars to users, bringing avatars, detecting frameworks (and not only languages,…). Read about all of them here. Once ghuser created your enhanced profile, it looked like this one.
