In plain English

Skill Icons is a web service that generates icon images for your GitHub profile README or resume. Instead of hunting down individual logo files for each technology you know, you add a single image link to your README that lists the tools you want, and the service assembles them into a clean row of icons automatically. The way it works is straightforward: you construct a URL such as https://skillicons.dev/icons?i=js,html,css where the part after ?i= is a comma-separated list of technology short names. The service returns an SVG image containing all those icons, which Markdown renders inline. You can control how many icons appear per row (the default is 15, with a maximum of 50), choose between a dark or light background theme, and center the row using standard HTML image alignment. The icon collection covers a broad range of tools: programming languages like Python, JavaScript, Rust, and Go, frameworks like React, Vue, Django, and Flutter, cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, databases, editors, design tools, operating systems, and more. Many icons have separate dark and light themed variants for cases where the background color affects readability. New icons are not accepted via pull requests. If you want a technology added that is not yet on the list, the README asks you to open a GitHub issue to request it instead. The service runs on Cloudflare Workers and is free to use with no signup required.
