The advice about badges reads like parody to me. I only really care if the project has CI. The Zoid repo has way too many!<p>I focus on making sure the mobile view of the github page has a compelling summary of the state of the project “above the fold”:<p>- purpose and goal<p>- programming language<p>- software type: library, framework, language, CLI, server, etc<p>- maturity: age, production-readiness, prominent users, corporate backing<p>Logo is a nice-to-have.
