This is neat. Another option is to just ask GitHub to render your README:
curl -H "Accept:application/vnd.github.v3.html" https://api.github.com/repos/captn3m0/hackertray/readme
If your repo is public, you can do this in the browser as well with a single line of jQuery[0] without any authentication. On my blog, the page itself[1] is just a placeholder for the repo URL, and the layout[2] does the rest. Obviously, this isn't static so all the usual caveats apply (SEO/perf/accessibility).[0]: https://github.com/captn3m0/captn3m0.github.com/blob/master/...
