## What it is
A metrics/infographics generator that collects stats about GitHub users, organizations, and repositories using 30+ plugins and hundreds of options. It renders results as SVG, Markdown, PDF, or JSON, commonly embedded in GitHub profile READMEs via GitHub Actions.

## Use cases
- generate a GitHub profile README with stats
- create an SVG infographic of my GitHub activity
- show language and commit statistics on my profile
- track stargazers and followers over time
- generate metrics for my organization or repository
- automate README stats updates with GitHub Actions

## When to choose
- you want visual GitHub statistics embedded in a README
- you need automated, scheduled metric generation
- you want highly customizable stats with many plugins

## When to avoid
- you need metrics for non-GitHub platforms
- you want real-time dashboards rather than generated images
