Generate a Résumé from Your Github Account

A few months ago, Nodejitsu co-founder Marak Squires wrote “The day’s of resumes and references for developers are slowly dying.” Squires sends his Github account to potential employers before he sends a résumé.

The creator, David Coallier, notes:

This is the first version, please keep in mind that it only fetches your first 30 repositories for now. I am planning on adding things as such as your most committed forks, most committed repositories and make the “My Popular Repositories” be built from your complete list of repositories. The issue right now is say you have 37 repositories, this will only retrieve the first 30 repositories that were created. I’ll put a note here when this is fixed or feel free to fork the page, make changes and send them back 🙂
