😊Hi Product Hunt, 🏡I'm very excited to be launching FeMake today, since this project touches close to home as a female maker on this platform. 🤔Since joining the maker community recently, I've been very pleasantly surprised by the positivity and support of females. However, when I looked at sites like 500 makers, I didn't see many women. So, I wanted to know: where does the maker community really stand in terms of inclusion, and more importantly, why might that be? 🐦I started with this tweet and the responses made it clear that I wasn't the only one who wanted to see this data. 📈So, I pulled all the maker and product data from the beginning of PH time (aka Nov 2013). After decoding over 40k names, I now had a view on the presence of women and how this has changed over time. More importantly, I think we as a community hopefully have a clearer view of the real picture: areas we can improve, areas we have improved, and something to measure moving forward. 🌟Finally, I wanted to make FeMake more than just a data center so I chose to include suggested tools and celebrate top female contributors, who have been influential in inspiring other women to join this movement. 💡If you'd like to understand my approach, reflection on the data, and why I even care about this project in the first place, you can read my article here. FeMake is also a part of Makers Festival under Inclusion, if you would like to vote for it. 💜Special thank you to a fellow female maker @tcodinat, who helped me create the amazing launch GIF and for sending me a customizable ProductHunt API script to play with. Also, thank you to @marie_dm_ and the entire Women Make community for helping me and other women to find their voice in tech.
