For years, I’ve seen indie developers struggle with the same problem: you can build something amazing, but getting it seen – that’s the hard part. Big platforms are crowded, algorithms favor the giants, and too many clever projects vanish before they get traction.
That’s why I started working on DevZarr. Think of it as a digital bazaar for developers – a place where small projects can get visibility, feedback, and community support. Instead of fighting for scraps on massive platforms, developers can showcase their work in a space designed for them.
What makes it different?
- 🛠 Indie-first: tools and workflows designed for solo and small teams.
- 💬 Real-time chat and cliques: like old-school IRC but modernized for collaboration.
- 🤖 AI-powered helpers: from generating launch content to helping with marketing.
- 💸 Fair support: no gatekeeping, no pay-to-play visibility – just community and donations.
I’m building it with modern tools – Next.js, Supabase, TailwindCSS, Vercel – and a community-first philosophy. It’s early days, but the mission is clear:
Help indie devs be seen, supported, and successful.
