Dev Metrics in Readme with added feature flags 🎌

📌✨Awesome Readme Stats

---

Are you an early 🐤 or a night 🦉?
When are you most productive during the day?
The languages you code in
Let's check out in your readme!

Prep Work

1. You need to update the markdown file(.md) with 2 comments. You can refer here for updating it.
2. You'll need a WakaTime API Key. You can get that from your WakaTime Account Settings
   • You can refer here, if you're new to WakaTime
3. You'll need a GitHub API Token with repo scope from here if you're running the action to get commit metrics

   enable repo scope seems DANGEROUS
   but this GitHub Action only accesses your commit timestamp in repository you contributed.

   • You can use this example to work it out
4. You need to save the WakaTime API Key and the GitHub API Token in the repository secrets. You can find that in the Settings of your Repository.Be sure to save those as the following.
   • WakaTime-api-key as WAKATIME_API_KEY = <your wakatime API Key>and
   • The GitHub Access Token as GH_TOKEN=<your github access token>
5. You can enable and disable feature flags based on requirements.

This Action will run everyday at 00.00 IST

Update your Readme

Add a comment to your README.md like this:

<!--START_SECTION:waka-->
<!--END_SECTION:waka-->

These lines will be our entry-points for the dev metrics.
