TIL: Building a self-updating profile README for GitHub

Summary

Today I learned about a new feature on GitHub that allows you to create a profile README by setting up a repository with the same name as your GitHub account.

  1. Create a repo with the same name as your account: github.com/foobar/foobar;
  2. Add a README.md to it; and
  3. GitHub will render the contents at the top of your personal profile page.

Bonus: automate update with GH Actions
