Hi there!

Thank you for this awesome project! This PR adds a beautiful "Used by" section in the README.md file to showcase its impact.

I've created this using an open source tool I built myself: dependents.info. Here's a preview of how the image renders:

Used by

github network dependents image generated by dependents.info

There's also a shield.io based badge if you prefer the smaller variant.

github network dependents total count generated by dependents.info

For your repository, they will look like this:

Please feel free to close the PR if you don't want to have this!

@gouravkhunger , what's the sorting logic behind it?

I was expecting https://github.com/TriliumNext/Trilium to be more at the beginning of the list.

Hi @eliandoran, by default the api picks the first few repositories from the network dependents page to show case.

Processing the dependents, sorting through them and picking the ones with most stars is available when using the github action to run the ingestion task. It provides many more customization options, and also higher quality images for rendering.

If you don't want to use the action, I can add sorting ability when picking repositories from the page, but it won't persist as users of your repository grow. Thanks for reaching out!

Thanks for the response, @gouravkhunger .

It's up to @SSShooter as maintainer of the library, I'm just a consumer of it.
