Github Skyline - Your Contribution Story in 3D

Hello!

I just wanted to showcase something I’ve been working on recently called Github Skyline. It allows you to generate 3D models of your (or others) Github contribution graphs.

Github had made their own version in 2021, but it went offline around 2024 and got replaced by a CLI version. Long story short, I felt like something like this should be readily accessible; the CLI didn’t meet my definition of that, and the alternatives lacked some features I thought should be present, so I got to work, and here we are!

Check it out here: https://gh-skyline.pages.dev/

Features:

  • Highly customizable, parameter-based model editor with options to change username text, font, tower size, base shape, and more.
  • Ability to generate multi-year skylines
  • Performant, changes are applied in real-time
  • 3MF support (can export model with colors for multi-extruder printers)
  • Cloud Enterprise authentication support
  • Sharing support, with minimal or full model settings

This is rad. :smiley:
I’d love to see even more fine details.. like breaking the big cubes into smaller cubes based on size of commit or smth… so they would make more spiral/spikey towers or smth.
Very cool…
