## What it is
A Chrome extension that lets you draw freely on your GitHub contribution heatmap. It exports your drawing as a git commit script that, when run and pushed, reproduces the drawing in a repository's commit log.

## Use cases
- draw pictures in my github contribution graph
- create pixel art from git commits
- generate a commit script to fill my github heatmap
- prank a friend's github profile with commit art

## When to choose
- you want a visual, in-browser drawing tool for the GitHub heatmap
- you prefer a Chrome extension over command-line scripts

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained tool - the last release was 2018
- you want a non-Chrome browser or CLI-only workflow
- you need legitimate contribution tracking rather than novelty art

## Facets
- artifact type: plugin
- maturity: abandoned
- function: developer-tools, graphics, version-control
- domain: developer-tools, version-control, gaming-tools
- platform: browser, browser-extension
- tags: github-heatmap, chrome-extension, git-art, commit-history, novelty
