Reminds me of the content for the single page hero portfolio. 😉
I actually like it as it is concise, compact and that way the pinned projects are in the view right after 😉

This is the look that I wanted. The readme block plays well with other surrounding information. Like a story-telling. I discard those fancy infographics because the whole look would cause distraction. Too much noise.

Looks nice 🤩 I can tell it took time as everything is neatly organized and concise due to the use of icons 👌

I'm not in love with it tbh, I'd like to change to header image to something smaller and find a nice set of icons for the languages/tech. If you have any tip, I'd love to hear it!

EDIT: Changed the header to something smaller (I like the idea of having an image there). I'm working on updating my description!

I would probably replace the image with about me a text, something in the lines like Louis commented earlier 😉
