In plain English

GitHub Trends is a tool that generates visual statistics cards for your GitHub profile, focusing on lines of code written rather than just star counts or commit numbers. Many developers use a profile README (a special file shown on your GitHub profile page) to show off their work, and GitHub Trends creates embeddable image cards that display breakdowns of your coding activity by programming language, by repository, and over time. What sets it apart from similar tools is that it analyzes your individual commits rather than just your public repositories. This means if you contribute to other people's open-source projects, or have collaborators contributing to yours, GitHub Trends still counts the lines you personally wrote rather than crediting you for all code in a repo. To use it, you sign up at githubtrends.io, connect your GitHub account, and then paste a short link into your profile's README file. The card updates automatically. There is also a "GitHub Wrapped" feature at githubwrapped.io, similar to Spotify Wrapped, that gives a year-end summary of your coding year. The project is written in Python and provides both a web interface for easy setup and a direct API for developers who want more customization.
