The service generates badge images that can be embedded into Markdown documents (or anywhere else where images work). It's accessed using a REST-like API.
@splittydev Your entire comment there could/should be copy-pasted as an intro for your project. My curiosity was piqued when i saw this listed here on HN, but it did not fully hit me when i visited the website, and only partially understood when i visited the github repo...But, if you wish for your project to get visitors to understand at a glance what your project is about, a very brief intro always helps. I hope that does not offend, but i hate when good projects don't get enough love and/or attention due to small (sometimes basic) issues - like missing intros, missing license, etc. Kudos on your project!
I appreciate the feedback, and no offense taken! I mostly look at projects through the "developer lens", so it didn't occur to me that my target group could want additional information. I was under the impression that most people who would want to use badgers.space would already be familiar with shields.io or badgen.net, making this service easy to understand. Your comment makes it clear that there are people interested in the projects without former knowledge of similar projects, so that's definitely an important piece of information for me to consider! I'll work on improving these things over the next few days/weeks :)
