Over four years ago, Tom Preston‐Werner released his iconic ‘Fork me on GitHub’ banners that we all know and love. I thought I’d update them for high‐resolution displays after adding one to Tally — the new template engine I’m working on for Node.js and browsers — and seeing that it was blurry on my iPad.
I’ve recreated all the original colours (red, green, black, orange, grey, and white) and added a few new ones to boot. I hope you find them useful.
Find all the banners and copy/paste code snippets on my blog post.
PS. I’ve also uploaded the original Sketch file so you can customise them to your heart’s desire.
/images These are the images you should use. They’ve been through ImageOptim and tinypng.org (lossy compression that maintains the alpha channel). Sample size difference with uncompressed (52kb → 18kb). Overall, the final images are 64% smaller than the original uncompressed exports from Sketch.
/images-imageoptim The images in this folder have only undergone non‐lossy compression.
/images-uncompressed These are the original exports from Sketch.
