Git Draw allows you to draw pictures directly into your GitHub heat map

In plain words

Git Draw is a developer tool that lets users create pictures directly in their GitHub contribution heat map. It works by enabling developers to make contributions that form visual patterns rather than traditional code commits. The tool is hosted on GitHub, making it accessible to anyone with a GitHub account. It stands out as a creative way to visualize contributions while maintaining an active GitHub presence.

  GitDiagram is an open-source micro dev-tool that I made this past week Given any public GitHub repository it generates diagrams in Mermaid.js with Claude 3.5 Sonnet I extract information from the file tree and README for details and interactivity (you can click components to be taken to relevant files and directories) Also, you can replace "hub" with "diagram" in any repository URL to access its diagram I created this because I wanted to contribute to open-source projects but quickly realized their codebases are too massive for me to dig through manually, so this helps me get started I do…

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client.
