README cards that don't suck
Every GitHub README has the same stats card, streak flames, and badge wall. coolreadme lets you paste real stuff from your life (a film you watched, a tweet you liked, your npm package, a Twitch stream) and get back a Netflix or X-style card. 30+ types. Animated pet streaks (cat, dog, fox, penguin, owl) evolve through 9 stages on live GitHub data. /llms.txt endpoint so Claude or ChatGPT writes the markdown for you. No signup, no database, edge-rendered with Satori. Free for personal use.

Hey Product Hunt, I'm Yerdaulet (ED), solo dev, shipping for devs and the occasional vibecoder. I built coolreadme.xyz because every GitHub README on the planet looks the same. Look at any dev profile. You'll see three things: the A+ rank circle from anuraghazra/github-readme-stats, the orange flame columns from DenverCoder1/github-readme-streak-stats, and a wall of rainbow badges from shields.io or skill-icons.dev. Then somewhere "Profile views: 11" and "Hi, I'm passionate about turning coffee into code ☕". Same setup since 2018. Your GitHub README is the most-read thing you own. Recruiters land there. So do collaborators, and anyone else who looks you up. And right now it looks exactly like the next person's. What I wanted was a README that actually felt like me. The series I'm watching (Supernatural). A tweet I want to pin with the real engagement on it. The npm package I just shipped, with live download numbers. My contribution streak rendered as a fox that evolves the longer I keep going, instead of a wall of green squares I share with every other GitHub user. So coolreadme.xyz is a card builder where you paste the things you already have and get a card back. Paste your GitHub username, you get an animated pet streak that auto-pulls your contribution history. Type a film, you get a Netflix hero card with the real TMDB poster. Paste a tweet, an X card with the verified check and engagement counts. Drop a release URL, an Instagram-style launch post. Drop a Twitch link, a live-stream card with viewer count. Drop an npm package name, a docs card with the current version and weekly downloads. There are 30+ card types right now, no signup, no database, nothing asks for your token. You paste a thing, you get a card. Two parts worth flagging. - The pet streaks. Animated SVG creatures (cat, dog, fox, penguin, owl) that evolve through 9 stages as your streak grows: seed, sprout, grind, streak, god, legend, mythic, eternal, transcended. Hit 100 days and your pet gets a crown. All driven by live GitHub contribution data. Started as a side joke and turned into the cards people screenshot most. - The LLM-first endpoint. There's a /llms.txt at the root. You can tell Claude or ChatGPT "read coolreadme.xyz/llms.txt and add a cinematic card for my username" and it writes the correct markdown. Saves the trip to the generator if you live in your editor with an AI assistant open. The infra is dumb on purpose. No database, no auth, no API keys, and personal use isn't rate-limited. Everything renders at the edge with Satori or raw SVG, cached hard. It's fast everywhere because there's nothing to be slow. Service is closed source, companion repo yerdaulet-damir/awesome-github-readme is open, PRs welcome there. I'd love brutal feedback. Card types you wish existed. Anything slow, broken, or weird. Whether the LLM workflow actually works in your editor stack. coolreadme.xyz - github.com/yerdaulet-damir (dogfooding it on my own profile) - github.com/yerdaulet-damir/awesome-github-readme Going to be in the comments all day. Thanks for hunting.
