Applying Templates via API

You can generate a configuration directly from any preset using createConfiguration:

import { createConfiguration, NormalizedGitHubData } from '@/engine'

const config = createConfiguration(
  user.id,
  user.login,
  'synthwave', // template ID
  'default',
  'Synthwave Profile',
  githubData
)

For an API preview, pass ?template=synthwave in an HTTP endpoint URL. Published v2 README images use the theme stored in their configuration instead:
