Getting noticed, but rough fundamentals could turn visitors away.
A low grade is a to-do list, not a judgment of your code
Most gaps here are documentation, tests, and setup, not the code itself. Closing your top 3 gaps alone would lift this repo to C (76).

Add automated tests. They prove the code works and give contributors confidence to make changes.
- 2CI/CD14pt
Add a step like `run: npm test`, `run: pytest`, or `run: tox` to your workflow file.
- 3CI/CD14pt
Add a lint step to catch style issues automatically.
- 4CI/CD14pt
Add `tsc --noEmit`, `mypy`, or `cargo check` to catch type errors before they merge.
Working through the fixes? Let every push regrade itself.
The free GitHub App rescans this repo on every push and posts the grade as a commit check, so the score climbs without coming back to rescan by hand.

Documentation

Contributing guidance is in the README, not a dedicated CONTRIBUTING.md (−20 pts).
→ Moving it to a CONTRIBUTING.md makes it easier to find and keeps the README focused. A dedicated file earns +47 pts base.
No install instructions found in the README (−45 pts).
→ Add a section showing how to install dependencies.
This repository is large enough that GitHub truncated the file tree. The scan is based on a partial file list, so some checks may under-report.
