When I first launched on Product Hunt, I had no idea what to expect. I wasn t sure anyone would notice our little startup, and honestly, I felt intimidated. Everyone seemed so established, and I didn t know where I fit in.

But then something incredible happened. A kind comment from @aaronoleary. Encouragement from the PH community. Support from the Product Hunt team when we ran into issues. A hunt from @benln. A thoughtful reply from @rajiv_ayyangar himself.

• That first launch became Product of the Day.

• We were later nominated for Product of the Year.

• In 2023, I was named Community Member of the Year.

• And now in 2025, I ve been invited to serve as a Product Hunt Ambassador!

Launched on Product Hunt last week, @Ultracite, an opinionated code formatting and linting tool, just hit 1,000 stars on GitHub.

The Product Hunt effect?
