Created a Pokémon-inspired GitHub profile card generator featuring 18 types, live stats, and compatible with READMEs

Transform Your GitHub Profile with a Custom Pokémon-Inspired Profile Card Generator

Are you looking to add a touch of personality and interactivity to your GitHub README? I’ve recently developed an innovative tool that allows you to create vibrant, animated profile cards inspired by Pokémon—perfect for showcasing your stats directly within your repositories.

Overview of Features:

  • Dynamic, Eye-Catching Design: Generate animated profile cards that enhance your GitHub README, making your profile stand out.
  • Rich Customization Options: Choose from 18 different Pokémon types to personalize your card’s appearance.
  • Real-Time Statistics: Display up-to-date information such as followers, repositories, stars, and recent activity.
  • Seamless Integration: Embed the cards directly into your README files—not just screenshots—thanks to SVG format compatibility.
  • Embedded Profile Image: Your profile picture is incorporated as a base64 image for streamlined display.

Getting Started:

Simply insert the following Markdown code into your GitHub README, replacing “YOUR_USERNAME” with your actual GitHub username and selecting your preferred Pokémon type:

markdown
![My GitHub Stats](https://animated-profile-stats.vercel.app/api/card?username=YOUR_USERNAME&type=fire)

Customize the type parameter to match your favorite Pokémon element:

  • Fire: ?type=fire
  • Water: ?type=water
  • Electric: ?type=electric
  • Dragon: ?type=dragon
  • And others available within the generator.

Why This Project?

Most existing solutions rely on static images or external hosting, which don’t reflect live data or require extra steps to update. This generator produces a pure SVG that consolidates real-time information from GitHub’s API, embedding seamlessly within your README for an engaging and dynamic profile display.
