## Awesome mentioned badge

This badge is for projects being mentioned in an Awesome list (**NOT for use in Awesome lists**). For example, the [Chalk](https://github.com/chalk/chalk) project could feature this badge because it's listed in [Awesome Node.js](https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome-nodejs). It's totally optional for projects, but it's a nice way to show they've been featured in an Awesome list.

[![Mentioned in Awesome](https://awesome.re/mentioned-badge.svg)](https://awesome.re)

**Fill in the placeholders (Name and URL):**

```md
[![Mentioned in Awesome <INSERT LIST NAME>](https://awesome.re/mentioned-badge.svg)](https://github.com/<INSERT LIST URL>)
```

Example:

```md
[![Mentioned in Awesome Node.js](https://awesome.re/mentioned-badge.svg)](https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome-nodejs)
```

If you're an Awesome list maintainer, you could encourage projects in your list to add the badge.
