A curated reference list of Markdown (and reStructuredText) code snippets for adding badges to GitHub or Bitbucket README files, sourced from services like shields.io and forthebadge.com. It is a documentation/cheatsheet resource rather than a software tool.
Use cases
- add a license badge to my README
- find markdown code for a GitHub stars badge
- show PyPI version badge in my project readme
- add a maintained status badge to my repository
- find reStructuredText badge snippets
- add a Discord badge to my README
When to choose
- you want copy-paste Markdown or reStructuredText badge snippets for a project README
- you need a quick reference for shields.io and forthebadge.com badge URLs
- you want examples of badges for GitHub, PyPI, Read the Docs, or licenses
When to avoid
- you need a tool or library that generates badges programmatically
- you want to self-host a badge service
- you need badges for platforms not covered by the list
