how to change the category?

You are seeing  CSS as your main language because it is the most-used in that repository. Other than adding more source languages to your repository, I do not think there is any manual way to change that displayed language.

Hope this helps!

1. Go to your repository.

2. In the "About" section, click the gear icon next to "Topics."

3. Add or update topics that best represent the category.

4. Click Save to apply the changes.

Hi @ura2rist,

Welcome to the Github Community Forum!

You cannot change the language of the repository, but you can change the attributes of the github repository. I mean that if you have a project where there are 60% css and 40% javascript you can said to github-linguist, that you want to ignore the css file.

To do that you need to:

1. create a .gitattributes file in the root of the project

2. edit that file and add a line to ignore the css language file

   *.css linguist-detectable=false
   *.js linguist-detectable=true

3. add, commit and push to remote and see the result

With this 3 steps you can ignore detection for a specific languages. You can also add more attributes, for example something like this:

*.css linguist-detectable=false
*.js linguist-detectable=true
*.java linguist-detectable=false

this attributes ignore the java files.

Hope this helps…

Ps: if you need some screenshots ask…

The solution for ignoring html files could be found here github-linguist/linguist#4769

[lmarkrol]

just create .gitattributes in the root folder of your repository, and give it these contents:

* linguist-vendored
*.dart linguist-vendored=false

This example tells GitHub/Linguist to ignore all files and look at .dart files. You can also add another language you want as long as the format files are included in your repository
