^{Start collecting digital badges on Holopin if you haven't yet!}

Holopin is a platform that allows you to create and collect digital badges that people love ━ this is for you if you love collecting badges. Here’s my collection ━ holopin.io/@vinitshahdeo. Read “Introducing Holopin: the digital badge platform for developers!” by @elena_lape to learn more.

While Holopin already provides badge boards that can be easily embedded on GitHub and GitLab. You can now also add markdown badges to your READMEs. It’s always recommended to embed badge board which is officially provided by Holopin ⎯ use it like your laptop stickers; but if you want to use a tiny badge, here’s how!

My gratitude to the Holopin team for featuring me among the first four Holopals.

Here’s how?

Replace vinitshahdeo in the markdown with your Holopin username. Start collecting digital badges on Holopin if you haven’t yet!

Contributing

Do you want to pitch in? If so, please consider developing a web app that generates the markdown badge dynamically based on the Holopin username entered by the user. There will be an option to copy the markdown text. You can take inspiration from the Topmate Badge Generator.

Quick start

git checkout feature/web-app
cd client
npm install
npm start

Note Please checkout issue #2

Under the hood

This is powered using an Express app which is hosted on Render, a cloud Application hosting provider for Developers! Huge shout-out to Shields.io service for providing badges in the SVG format.
