What it does

GitShowcase is a plug and play portfolio for developers. Open source and free.

Honest reviews of AI APIs, databases, hosting, and dev tools — every reviewer GitHub-verified. Compare 50+ tools with empirical data, not marketing fluff.

Tool reviews from developers who actually shipped the code. Every review verified through GitHub OAuth. Build your technical stack with empirical data, not marketing fluff. "Branch databases changed our preview-environment economics." "Actually makes task management feel like a performance tool." "Reliability standout — 99.97% uptime over 90 days running the agent layer." 78 developers compared code generation accuracy, context window limits, and 90-day uptime. Editor-native AI vs the incumbent — which writes code that ships? Build minutes, edge runtimes, and pricing breakpoints from teams running both infrom gitshowcase.com

    Hey HN - today I’m launching GitHired. A hiring platform that ranks developers based on what they actually build — not what they claim on a PDF. It’s called GitHired, and here’s the core idea: GitHub > Resumes Instead of trusting “proficient in React” bullet points, we analyze a candidate’s actual GitHub: their real tech stack their most complex projects how active they are what kinds of contributions they make which skills match your job description and yes, we detect fake “green square farming.” Why we built this Because engineering hiring is broken. Resumes are inflated. Activity charts…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
