Description

Adding support for http://isitmaintained.com/ would be nice. It doesn't look to have an API, but it has badges which can be scraped for text content (e.g. http://isitmaintained.com/badge/resolution/couchbase/forestdb.svg)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study existing badge service implementations in the codebase (e.g., how other services fetch badge data). Implement a new service for isitmaintained.com that scrapes the SVG badge for text content. Test locally with the provided example badge URL.
