# myXD

> myXD is a free gaming identity platform — a curated, themed public profile for gamers, content creators, and groups. Think "Linktree for gamers" but built specifically for gaming: rate your library, import from Steam, showcase clips, share your competitive career, list your PC loadout, organize teams, and find people to play with.

myXD unifies fragmented gaming identity (Steam library, Twitch streams, Medal clips, Discord, ranks, configs, schedules) into a single shareable profile at `myxd.me/yourname`. Built and maintained by one person, Max Kukla, since February 2026. Self-funded. No ads, no analytics, no data selling.

## Badges

myXD awards badges as users build out their profile and community presence.

- **Where**: Studio → Levels → Badges panel (4 tabs: Available, Ready to claim, Unlocked, Missed). Public profiles also surface a Badges section + up to 3 pinned badges next to the username.
- **Auto-earn rules** (v1): years of service, invites sent, games rated, games noted. Limited-event badges (e.g., Beta Tester, Christmas 2025) are admin-granted.
- **Claim model**: progressive badges accumulate progress and the user must visit the Ready tab to claim each tier (or hit "Claim all"). Admin grants can optionally auto-claim.
- **Privacy controls**: users can hide individual badges, hide the entire Badges section from their profile, and pin up to 3 badges to the hero strip.
