About the project
Hey, I'm Matheus Audibert, a software engineer at Itaú Unibanco. I built this project in a few hours, during a productive late night. The idea was simple: I wanted to see my GitHub contribution graph on my wallpaper every day. What I did not expect was for it to go viral, much less to find out that plenty of other devs wanted exactly the same thing.
It's really cool to see something that started as a personal idea being used by so many people. Thank you to everyone using, sharing and supporting the project!
FAQ
Yes, you can customize the wallpaper. You can change the color and the shape of the contributions, as well as the background color of the image.
No, the wallpaper does not count private contributions. For them to show up, you have to enable them in your GitHub account. For more information, see this article.
Not yet. I'm working on supporting as many iPhone and Android models as possible.
Basically, I built an API that returns an image formatted for a phone screen, showing a user's contribution graph. You set your phone to make a GET request to that API and use the result as your wallpaper. On iPhone this is done natively through "Shortcuts" automations. Android has no native equivalent, so you need the "MacroDroid" app to create the automation.
