What it does
A project page that makes a developer want to try it within seconds. Give it your repo or profile and it audits what a first-time visitor sees, then rewrites the weak parts. For the README it checks for a one-line promise, a hero example, badges that add trust, and install steps that work. For your profile it improves the intro and the pinned repos. It also sets topics and plans where to get listed so people can find the project. Developers judge a project on GitHub before they install it, so the first screen matters most.
You give it
- Your repo or profile link
- Who the project is for

You get

Use it when
