Description

The easiest way to get the version number is to either query https://repology.org/ or https://www.freshports.org/.

I might work on this soon myself. However, if you'd like to do it yourself then go for it. 😄 😈

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine existing badge implementations in the repository, particularly those that fetch data from external APIs. For FreeBSD ports, you can query version data from Repology.org or FreshPorts.org. Look at how other badges parse JSON responses and generate SVG badges.
