How to create a Github Profile README with Dynamic Github Stats

Hi All, I’m excited to share some details on how to create a Github profile README with Dynamic Github Stats. We all know that Github has now enabled a special repository to personalize your GitHub profile. Click to check my profile

Personalizing your Github profile will give your profile visitors a very good understanding of what you are, what you are working with. Previously it was very difficult to understand by the profile page as there were very few details to know what the person is doing or what he is up to. 

So to get started with the creation of GitHub Profile README all you need to do is to create a repository with your username, e.g: gkhan205 in my case. When you will enter your username in the repository section GitHub will understand that this is going to be your profile repository and will treat it with some special blessings.

While creating a repository, do also check on Initialize this repository with a README, this will add a preformatted README for your ease of use, but you can also go without that and add your own README file. Important is you need to have a README.md file in your repository where you will put all your details. After creating your repository the base look and feel will be like this.
