Why the ban risk is low

  • Built for sharing what you made — no promo-specific restrictions beyond the format.

The rules, in plain English

Sign in with GitHub and submit your dev tool with description, screenshots and links; GitHub auth keeps listings tied to real makers. Free, open-source and community-voted with weekly winners.

How to post here safely

Do
  • Complete the listing fully: clear tagline, screenshots, categories, links.
  • Follow the queue or launch-day rules; verify your domain when asked.
Don't
  • Don't submit a thin or duplicate listing — many are moderator-reviewed.
  • Don't buy fake votes or reviews; it gets listings removed.
