Building a personal brand is not an easy task. Although it is difficult, I am already working hard and hope to see some results slowly.
For programmers, it seems that we are easily immersed in development and ignore marketing, but marketing is indeed the most important!
Finally, I was allowed to advertise, but I couldn’t help it. I really couldn’t find the user.
I developed a card generation plug-in xcards that is injected into Twitter. It is open source. I hope someone will use it and give me some opinions.

Building a personal brand is indeed a challenge, but you're absolutely right—marketing is just as important as development. Your dedication is already showing, and I'm confident the results will come with time. 🚀

I checked out your xcards plug-in, and I have to say, it's impressive! 🎉 The way it seamlessly integrates with Twitter to generate cards is something I've been looking for. You're doing some amazing work, and I'd love to connect and discuss more ideas. Let's collaborate and continue to grow together! 🤝"
