Custom Badges

You can create custom badges using the Shields.io format:

https://img.shields.io/badge/{LABEL}-{MESSAGE}-{COLOR}

Parameters:

  • LABEL: Left side text
  • MESSAGE: Right side text
  • COLOR: Badge color (name or hex without #)

Optional parameters:

  • ?logo=LOGO_NAME: Add icon from Simple Icons
  • &logoColor=COLOR: Icon color
  • &style=STYLE: Badge style (flat, flat-square, plastic, for-the-badge, social)

Example custom badge:

[![Custom](https://img.shields.io/badge/Custom-Badge-orange?logo=github&logoColor=white&style=flat-square)](URL)

Badge Colors

Common color names supported by Shields.io:

  • brightgreen
  • green
  • yellowgreen
  • yellow
  • orange
  • red
  • blue
  • lightgrey
  • success
  • important
  • critical
  • informational
  • inactive

Hex colors: Use without the # symbol (e.g., FF6B6B)

Logo Names

Shields.io uses logos from Simple Icons. Common logo names:

  • python
  • javascript
  • typescript
  • github
  • gitlab
  • visualstudiocode
  • npm
  • docker
  • kubernetes
  • react
  • vue-dot-js
  • angular
  • node-dot-js
  • postgresql
  • mongodb
  • redis

Best Practices

  1. Order badges logically: Technology → Platform → Status → License
  2. Limit badge count: 5-10 badges maximum for readability
  3. Keep labels concise: Short, clear text
  4. Use consistent style: Stick to one badge style (flat recommended)
  5. Ensure accessibility: Use sufficient color contrast
  6. Link badges appropriately: Link to relevant documentation or homepage
  7. Update dynamically: Use dynamic badges (version, build status) when possible

    The skill is a comprehensive toolkit for textbook promotion. It performs expected tasks like metric gathering, asset generation (README, PPTX), and text generation (social posts, PRs). While it uses dynamic code execution for data extraction and network calls to fetch site structure, these actions are transparently documented and aligned with the skill's primary purpose. The included utility scripts for image processing and validation are benign.
