Attributes Guide

attributes description default
data-username Your DEV.to Username
data-width Width of the card 300px
data-contentheight Height of the Aricles Container 300px
data-theme Theme of the card (dark, ocean, pink, cobalt2, default) default
data-name (optional) Name to display on card Will be fetched from API
data-limit Number of articles to display 30
data-sortby Sort articles (date, reactions) date

Note: Value of data-limit should not be too high. An API request has to be made for every 30 articles so for data-limit=200 7 API requests will be made synchronously.

So a full example with every attribute would look something like

<dev-widget 
    data-username="saurabhdaware" 
    data-theme="ocean" 
    data-sortby="reactions" 
    data-width="320px" 
    data-contentheight="200px" 
    data-limit="3" 
    data-name="Saurabh 😎" 
></dev-widget>

<!-- Place script tag before the end of the body tag -->
<script src="https://unpkg.com/dev-widget@^1/dist/card.component.min.mjs" type="module"></script>

Note: Only data-username is neccessary and every other attribute is optional
