This is so fun, thanks for making it.

I bet that several of these regions have a common image in their readme (the python logo, the nix logo, etc). Imagine little flags popping out of each region...

haha, I love the flags idea :). I wish I had the prowess to implement it in a way that is visually appealing and not obscuring the map.

I would also love to have a giant octocat hugging the archipelago, with some radial gradient emitting inside of it. Alas my design-gl foo is not there yet
