Summary

  • Replaces the old ![licence badge] placeholder with proper shields.io badges using style=for-the-badge for a chunky, colorful look
  • Two centered rows: repo stats on the first line, social links on the second

Changes

  • README.md — replaced placeholder with 11 badges in two <p align="center"> blocks

Row 1 — Repo badges:

  • ⭐ GitHub Stars (gold + GitHub logo)
  • 🍴 GitHub Forks
  • 📄 License (auto-detects MIT)
  • 🚀 Latest Release
  • 🐛 Open Issues
  • 🕐 Last Commit
  • ✅ SQL Tests CI (sql-tests.yml workflow)

Row 2 — Social badges:

  • 𝕏 Follow @erikdarling on X (black + X logo)
  • ▶️ YouTube Subscribe (red)
  • 💼 LinkedIn Connect (LinkedIn blue)
  • 📝 Blog → erikdarlingdata.com (orange)

Test Plan

  • Preview README on the branch to confirm badges render correctly
  • Verify all badge links resolve to the correct destinations
  • Confirm CI status badge points to sql-tests.yml

Generated with Claude Code

Replaces the old licence badge placeholder with two centered rows of
for-the-badge shields — repo stats (stars, forks, license, release,
issues, last commit, SQL Tests CI) and social links (X/Twitter,
YouTube, LinkedIn, blog).
