DevHunt - Open source Product Hunt for dev tools

As a software developer, you've probably struggled to get your dev tool seen among a sea of unrelated products. That's why we created DevHunt - a platform made specifically with developers in mind. It's also Open Source.

Hey fellow devs! I'm excited to introduce you all to DevHunt - the platform built by us developers for showcasing our dev tools. We've been in your shoes as we struggled with getting our own products seen on Product Hunt and other platforms. It just felt not fair - non-dev products would crowd out everything we worked hard on! So, we decided to take matters into our own hands. As developers ourselves, we aimed at creating a better launchpad exclusively tailored towards developer tools – where every vote counts and authenticity is upheld through GitHub authentication. And then came the plot twist: what if instead of keeping this project closed-source, why not make it open-source? This way anyone can have their own dedicated launchpad in hours! Our mission with DevHunt is simple - empower developers worldwide by providing them with an accessible space where they can showcase their work without distractions while fostering community ownership among contributors! Join us today at DevHunt- our space built BY developers FOR developers! Core contributors: @sidi_jeddou @vitalik_may @igorboky @chris_byrne

@johnrushx Product Hunt for developers. That’s genius. Already sent my product for a launch on DevHunt πŸ™πŸš€

I don't have much to say. Why? Because DevHunt is simply a fantastic idea. IMO it's the missing puzzle, and has always been. As a dev myself, I found several hidden gems through that platform already. Awesome stuff!
John Rush
@maxprilutskiy thx , glad to hear it's useful to you
Vitalik May
@maxprilutskiy thanks for your support!

DevHunt is the best platform I have worked on for developers, it’s fill a big gap in dev tools world, since there’s no good place for developers to launch their dev tools, or to know new ones, so we built devhunt for this purpose, it’s an open source built by the tech community, and our goal is to make it the best place for developers and DevTools. This is just the beginning.
John Rush
@sidi_jeddou you've been one of the main heroes of the project Sidi, without whom nothing would be possible, you;re amazing

Geri MΓ‘tΓ©
Congrats on the launch! We launched a few weeks back on DevHunt and came out as #1 developer product of the week. DevHunt is the platform where developer products can showcase what they're capable of and can find their audience. It's crucial that DevHunt succeeds because this is one of the few places where developer focused products and tools don't get lost in the crowd. I'm excited to see how big DevHunt will become. Good luck Team DevHunt!
John Rush
@geri_mate it was amazing to see your product win, good luck moving forward, If you ever build another dev tool, bring it to devhunt again
Bhargav Dhameliya

Ariful Islam Khan
It's a great tool to publish your products/tools, specially for the indie makers out their. It's also open-sources and public.
John Rush

Alexey Kramin
DevHunt is a safe space for devs. We can launch there, exchange experience, and make a valuable impact. That's exactly what's needed for all of us as developers, dev-preneurs, and indiemackers. Looking forward to the evolution of the whole community
Lucas Haas
HUGE congrats on the launch! As a design agency, we often need a reliable source to find devs in order to supply the needs of our clients. Couldn't be easier with DevHunt.
John Rush
@bonumdesign feels so good that it's useful to you, thx Lucas
Bon
Cool! I’m a big fan of this idea! Developers should definitely back DevHunt. Upvoted! I’m hoping to see my dev product on DevHunt soon.
John Rush
@bonvisions thx, looking forward to see your dev tools on DevHunt
Valeriia Dziubenko
Hi Team, fantastic idea! Congratulations on the launch! Just wondering: what's the approximate audience you already have? And is it possible to launch on DevHunt a dev tool already launched on Product Hunt? Keep up your great work!
John Rush
@valeriia_dziubenko thx Valeriia, Of course, you can launch a tool that's been launched somewhere else. Feel free to do so. We have over 10k users so far, But after winning PH launch we will most likely grow much faster that this.
