In plain English

This repository is a collection of images, specifically fan art and illustrations of anime-style female characters holding books about programming, computer science, and related technical topics. It is a curated image archive with no code, intended as a lighthearted resource for people who want themed artwork of this specific subject. The project is community-maintained through pull requests, and the README outlines contribution rules: images must not be NSFW, must not be related to cryptocurrency, and must be organized into folders named after the subject of the book being held. File names should describe the character and book. Only non-AI-generated images are accepted, with a narrow exception for source images that were originally created for another purpose and then hand-edited to include a programming book. You would look at this repository if you want anime-style artwork depicting characters holding technical books, perhaps for wallpapers, profile pictures, or decorative use.
