About your profile

Your profile page tells people the story of your work through the repositories you're interested in, the contributions you've made, and the conversations you've had.

You can add personal information about yourself in your bio, like previous places you've worked, projects you've contributed to, or interests you have that other people may like to know about. For more information, see Personalizing your profile.

Wenn du dem Stammverzeichnis eines öffentlichen Repositorys eine README hinzufügst, deren Namen identisch mit deinem Benutzernamen ist, wird diese automatisch auf deiner Profilseite angezeigt. Du kannst die README deines Profils mit GitHub Flavored Markdown bearbeiten, um einen personalisierten Abschnitt in deinem Profil zu erstellen. Weitere Informationen finden Sie unter Managing your profile README.
