Customize your github profile

Did you know it is possible to customize your github profile with a bio? It’s a great option to let everyone know who you are and what you do. It is really simple, to do it you just need to create a public repository with your Github username as the name and add a README.md.

Check out an example: https://github.com/rafaelrubbioli/rafaelrubbioli

The readme file uses Markdown that lets you format text, but the Github’s version supports even emojis.

Here are some tips of what you can do:

  • bullet lists (-)
  1. Numbered lists (1.)

highlights (``)

Big title (#)

Medium Title (##)

Small title(###)

Code fragment (```{lang} {code}```)

func CodeFragment() {
    fmt.Println("wow!")
}

If you want to use any of those characters you can simply escape them with \.

Customize

Now, get creative and customize your profile too!
