About Developer Tools
Developer tools are built by people who have usually hit the problem themselves, at a desk, late, with a deadline. This category is where those makers introduce their work in their own words, with a face and a signature next to the product, not just a feature list.
Browse the products and businesses here and in the subcategories below, then use the filters to narrow things down. Listings appear newest first by default, and you can sort by community votes instead. Votes can never be bought, so the order you see reflects what people actually liked.
If you are comparing tools, read the founder's story before the specification. It tells you who maintains the thing, what they care about and how likely it is to fit the way your team works.

Developer Tools: questions answered
- What belongs in Developer Tools?
- Anything a developer uses to build, ship, test or run software: libraries, services, command line utilities, hosted platforms and open projects. If the main buyer is a person writing or operating code, this is probably the right home for your listing.
- How do I choose between the subcategories?
- Pick the one that describes the job your product does for the user, not the technology underneath it. A deployment service with a database built in belongs where most of its value sits. Every listing has exactly one main category, included free.
- Can my tool appear in more than one place?
- Yes. Your main category is chosen at submission and included free. A paid upgrade adds up to 3 more categories for $5, which suits tools that genuinely span, say, testing and pipelines.
- How do I get a developer tool listed?
- Go to /submit and paste your website address. An AI drafts the profile from that site, and you check and edit every field before anything goes live. A paid launch costs $5; a free listing joins a queue of about 6-8 weeks.
- What should I look for when comparing tools here?
- Check who is behind the product, how clearly the profile explains the problem it solves, and whether the founder describes real use. Then sort by community votes to see which tools other people rated, and open a few to compare side by side.
