Quick Tip (Align The Repo Cards)

You usually won't be able to layout the images side by side to do that you can use this approach

<a href="https://github.com/anuraghazra/github-readme-stats">

</a>

Deploy on your own Vercel instance

Since Github API only allows 5k requests per hour it is possible that my https://github-readme-stats.vercel.app/api could hit the rate limiter thats why if you want to host it on your own vercel server then you don't have to worry about anything. click on the deploy button to get started

Guide on setting up Vercel

1. Go to vercel.com
2. Click on Log in
3. Sign in with GitHub by pressing Continue with GitHub
4. Sign into GitHub and allow access to all repositories, if prompted
5. Fork this repo
6. Go back to your Vercel dashboard
7. Select Import project
8. Select Import Git Repository
9. Select root and keep everything as is, just add your environment variable named GITHUB_TOKEN (as shown), which will contain a personal access token (PAT), which you can easily create here (leave everything as is, just name it something, can be anything you want.)
10. Click deploy, and you're good to go. See your domains to use the API!
