How can I add these things to my repository?

You can open up the README.md file in a repository that you see these in and look at the code to view how it is done. In this case, it seems to be done by adding some html into to the README.md.

Example:

<a href="https://github.com/schmooblidon/schmooblidon.github.io/graphs/contributors">
  <img alt="GitHub Contributors" src="https://img.shields.io/github/contributors/schmooblidon/schmooblidon.github.io" />
</a>

This html creates a link so the badge is clickable, then displays the badge using https://shields.io/, which is a website to set up what kind of badge you want. The urls in the html of course need to reference your own repository.

Here are a few more resources (most of these are built on top of shields.io mentioned above by @NeilHarbin0

To add badges to your GitHub repository, you can use various tools available. Here's a simple guide to help you get started:

Create a README.md file in the root folder of your repository if you don't already have one. This file will serve as the main documentation for your project.

Inside the README.md file, you can add badges using Markdown syntax. Badges provide valuable information at a glance, such as build status, code coverage, or version numbers. They are commonly used to display project information and enhance its visual appeal.

To create badges easily, you can use the badge-generator tool. This tool provides a collection of badges and allows you to generate their Markdown code by customizing various parameters. Refer to their documentation for detailed usage instructions.

Keep in mind that the badge-generator is just one of the available tools. If you want to explore other options, you can perform a quick search on Google to find more badge generator tools that suit your needs.
