Pexels vs Readme typing SVG

Pexels' JSON API serves its library of free stock photos and videos for keyword search, curated collections, and per-item lookups, with photo results carrying several pre-generated JPEG sizes ready to use without further processing. A personal key sent via the Authorization header is the only credential required — no OAuth flow — and a live probe of the search endpoint showed a 25,000-request rate-limit window tracked per key rather than per IP. There is no paid tier: under the Pexels License, images and videos are free for personal and commercial use, with attribution appreciated but not required.

Readme Typing SVG renders an animated typewriter-effect SVG from a `lines` query parameter, meant to be dropped straight into a GitHub profile README or repo as an `<img>` tag — no signup or key required. Query options control font, colors, size, typing speed, and pause duration, and a hosted demo page lets you preview and copy the generated markdown live. The service is open source (DenverCoder1 on GitHub) and runs on a Heroku-backed host behind Cloudflare.
