Whatsup PH!
I’m Mattia, and I’ve been working on Buildshare for the past few weeks.
I’ve been building in public and sharing my work on socials for about a year. Since I started, I was able to get much more reach for my projects and stay more motivated.
I realized that on socials, consistency is key. But, it’s also the hardest part. The way you structure your posts and talk about your product can either boost you or kill you.
That’s why I decided to build a tool to help developers be more consistent and effective when sharing their work on social media.
Here’s how it works:
1. Enter some info about what you’re building
2. Connect your Github + install a plugin on your repository
3. Every time you ship new code (by either merging a pull request or pushing a commit) a tweet is automatically generated to announce the new feature
Generated tweets follow best practices that are optimised for grabbing people’s attention and making them want to check out what you’ve built.
It’s completely free to use. Let me know if you have any suggestions or feedback 😄
When I first learned about Buildshare -
🤯
was my reaction!
But also the more I think about it - the more it makes sense to me. It smells like future. Build-in-public, on automation.
Let's go, @mattiapomelli!
Congrats on the launch!
@maxprilutskiy thanks Max! Super glad to hear this
Let's goo, let's build in public! 💪

Very neat linkage. Not really my area of expertise, but I'm also sort of curious if there could be some type of 'translation' to convert github/developer talk to content for a twitter audience?
E.g. "updated API" to "updated connection between BuildStreak.com and Buildshare.io" or something
@esus yes this is what Buildshare does! It looks at commit messages and pull request descriptions and translates them into tweets for the product audience
This is SUCH a great idea!!
We've been looking for a way to help take the load off the product/marketing team when it comes to announcing new feature releases, improvements, bug fixes etc, and this looks like it'll help solve our pain. If we could also get it to write a weekly changelog summary of some of the bigger ticket items, that would be the icing on the cake!
@carmen_fl0 thanks Carmen! I'm glad to hear that Buildshare solves a problem you have. I plan to add a weekly summary as well, since multiple people have requested it! Would love to know more in detail what you expect from this feature.
I was just thinking about building something like this - glad you built it instead! Can't wait to try it out

I am excited about this idea! It would be great if pushing to GitHub could automatically generate tweets and include the #buildinpublic hashtag. Congrats for your launch!
@jakeharr thanks Jake! Yes that's a good idea. I'm planning to allow to customize the template of the tweets, e.g. always include an hashtag, always follow a specific structure, always end with the product link, etc.
