    The widgets at the bottom of the site are based on a library called GitHub readme stats. It is a set of scripts hosted on Vercel that generates stats based on your GitHub info. It is meant for custom Readme files that you show on your GitHub page, but it works just as well on my site. The second widget is also from the same repo but pulls the information from Wakatime. Wakatime silently watches your code editors, in a non-creepy way, and gathers statistics on what language you are working in, how long you have spent on a project, and other metrics. I've been using it for years, and I find it a great metric on what other languages I've interacted with beyond PHP.

Since one of my goals this year is to learn Laravel, it was the perfect fit for my site. GitHub is where I've decided to store my repos, and Netlify watches for changes to my main branch and rebuilds my site.
