One suggestion: my bet is that close to no one knows what the acronym BDD stands for. The first comment on this post is in fact exactly about that.

I'd consider explaining what BBD is at the start of the front page of your project.

It may be an age thing. 15-ish years ago, TDD, BDD, Red/Green Testing, and a whole bunch of others were hot topics. They’re still useful approaches to know about, even if some (like, IMO, BDD) didn’t really stand the test of time.

"my bet is that close to no one knows what the acronym BDD stands for".

That's disconcerting. Software engineers ought to know.

I’ll take that bet, since we ask about it in our interview questions.
