DevQuest
Interactive terminal cards for your GitHub profile README
Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I’m Ilyuha, creator of DevQuest.
Most GitHub profile READMEs fall into two categories: either they look completely identical using standard stats templates, or they are static and get outdated the moment you stop updating them manually.
As developers, our GitHub profile is our digital CV. We wanted to build a tool that lets you showcase your actual identity, style, and stats without the friction. But we also wanted to push the boundaries of what static markdown can do.
That’s why we built DevQuest. Beyond just rendering pretty SVGs with your code stats, we introduced interactive elements. By wrapping our API endpoints, you can now embed a live Guestbook or a Poll directly into your profile README. Your visitors click the card, leave a signature or a vote, and the README card updates in real-time.
Features:
- 33 layout templates to display your stats exactly how you want.
- 15 unique frames (ranging from Terminal and Glass to Neobrutalism and Blueprint).
- 19 developer-first color themes + 40 customizable ASCII arts.
- Auto-refreshing cache, meaning zero manual updates.
- 100% free and open-source.
We are live today and would love to hear your feedback. Try it out, build your custom card, and drop your GitHub profile links in the comments below! I'll be here all day answering questions. 🦾⚡️
swapped my readme over in about five minutes and the heatmap template actually pulls my real commit data without me fiddling with tokens, which was a nice surprise
How does the live Guestbook actually persist new entries between page reloads, is that tied to GitHub OAuth storage or running on your own backend?
love that the guestbook and poll actually live-update without needing a backend hookup, that turns a readme from a static billboard into something people want to come back to
Swapped out my boring README with a heatmap template and it actually makes the profile feel alive, the guestbook embed is a fun surprise too.
Finally got my boring README to look like an actual terminal. Embedded a guestbook and two friends signed it within minutes, which felt way more fun than another static stats card.
The decision to embed real-time interactivity like a guestbook directly inside a README is genuinely clever, it pushes static markdown way past what it was ever meant to do without feeling hacky.
Finally ditched the boring static readme. The heatmap and stats block look surprisingly clean in dark mode, and the guestbook actually updates without me refreshing the page. Worth a look if you're tired of looking like every other dev profile.
The ASCII frame library is a really nice touch, sets it apart from the usual card generators and shows real attention to personality over generic stats display.
