I don't really understand what you mean by, "worth".

I could say that I'll use a formula like (age in weeks) + (height in bananas) + (number of credit cards) to calculate my worth in Francs, but that's just me making stuff up. "Worth" is only relevant to marketable things.

So... is there anywhere I could sell my github presence for a bit of extra cash?

Awesome app! One suggestion, please add a reset/refresh button if I want to try another account.

Is there a reason to present the rating as an amount in dollars, or is it just to spice things up a bit? From what I can see, the number is really just the weighted sum of some account metrics, right?

Cool project though ๐Ÿ‘

Looks exactly like something that went viral a few days ago on twitter, got inspired a lot huh? twitter.com/shyam_tawli/status/173...

Are you saying he stole/copied the idea?

It's probably. My account worth is almost the same using both, maybe he stole the formula using the console

No i didn't stole his idea i inspired by her and i also tweet about this and mention her . And his github-worth.vercel.app/ Github repositories hi private so we cannot see him .

Maybe just a weird coincidence. I think copying/getting inspired is fine if it's made clear that it is:)

I appreciate the sentiment but I would caution against attributing value to green dots. It's bragging rights and I can make a lot of very harmful changes, pointless changes, and valuable changes all in the name of green dots.

Keep having great ideas though, and I love the stack you used.

Awesome job on the app! I love it.

Just want to point out two things:

  1. The button says โ€œSave as JPEGโ€, but it actually saves the file as a PNG. (Minor detail).

Image description

  1. The dollar sign should be before the number, not after it. (Also a minor issue, but important for style).

Image description

Also, it seems a lot like the one here:
github-worth.vercel.app/
But being inspired (or as is likely coming up with it all by yourself!) is fine.

Otherwise, awesome job! I like yours more than the other because it gives me a higher worth. :D

Thank you so much for your awesome feedback, Yes i got inspired by github-worth.vercel.app/ but i had not copied his code because his Github repositories is private and we cannot see him.
