Publicly

In plain words

Publicly is a platform for tracking makers who build and share their progress openly. It serves as a directory where users can discover and follow projects from creators willing to document their work publicly. The service aggregates these open-building efforts in one place, making it easy to follow along with what others are creating across various fields.
