v1.1.0 - Video Release
Video Posts Support
Your GitHub profile just got more dynamic! We are excited to announce that linkedin-cards now supports Video Posts.
Previously, video posts might have been skipped or rendered incorrectly. Now, the action detects them and generates a specific SVG card layout, capturing the essence of your video content to display proudly on your README.
