By default the profile page of a user is the list of repositories they
own. It is possible to customize it with a short description that
shows to the left, under their avatar. It can now be fully
personalized with a markdown file that is displayed instead of the
list of repositories.
![Profile page](../_images/user/profile/profile-step1.png)
It uses the `README.md` file from the `.profile` repository of the
user, if it exists.
![Profile README.md](../_images/user/profile/profile-step2.png)
Making the `.profile` repository private will hide the Profile README.
Rather than supporting multiple social links on the profile card, under the user
avatar, such links - including
[`rel=me`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Attributes/rel/me)
attributes - can be placed in the `.profile` readme instead. This gives a user a
lot of flexibility on how they wish to display these links. To add a `rel=me`
attribute, the link should be written in HTML, rather than in Markdown format,
for example: `<a rel="me"
href="https://social.example.com/@username">Fediverse</a>`.
