roaster0: I Let Gemini Read My GitHub and It Destroyed Me (Then Redeemed Me)

This is a submission for Weekend Challenge: Passion Edition (#weekendchallenge #devchallenge #ai #googleai #gemini #webdev #showdev) What if your GitHub could roast you harder than your teammates ever would — and then remind you why you keep building? What I Built 🔥 roaster0 — an AI that roasts your GitHub profile, then redeems you. Drop in any public GitHub username and it pulls your real repo data — commit habits, abandoned projects, lazy repo names, language choices — and turns it into a savage, hyper-specific roast using Gemini's structured output and multimodal reasoning. Then it ends with one sincere, earned compliment pulled from something genuinely good in your data. The idea started from a simple thought: your GitHub is an involuntary diary of what you were obsessed with. The eleven repos with no description. The final-v2-FINAL commit. The side project you lived and breathed for three weeks in March before abandoning it. That's passion — messy, obsessive, usually invisible unless someone points a spotlight at it. There's also a second mode, 🎭 Roast Anything : submit a name, bio, links, and/or images, and Gemini reads all of it — text, links, photos — to generate the same experience for anyone, not just developers. Demo 🔗 Live app: roaster0.netlify.app Try it on any public GitHub username, or switch to Roast Anything mode and paste in a bio + an image to see the multimodal analysis at work. Once your roast is generated, you can: 🔊 Listen to it — full audio narration via Web Speech API, paced and pitched differently depending on roast intensity 🖼️ Download the card — every roast renders as a shareable PNG on HTML5 Canvas, ledger-paper aesthetic, ready to post 📋 Share the record — copy a formatted text version straight to clipboard for any platform A couple of examples from testing: GitHub mode — roasted DEV's own founder using nothing but his real public repo data: (screenshot: Ben Halpern roast card — graveyard count, repo names like oceanic-giraffe and test
