awesome project
And I definitely love the idea of helping open source developers with the landing pages
Me as an opensource developer always have a hard time building a landing page as I suck at design

Thanks!
Yeah thats the whole point, just to help people out! I enjoy doing all sorts and writing tools so anything I can do to help people.
If your interested in the project, sign up for the early access, I give weekly updates on progress and hopefully soon give people links to give the tool ago for themself!
I just this second created another Youtube video with a weekly update if your interested:
- Mockit - A tool to quickly create mocked APIs.
- awsicons.dev - Quickly find AWS icons
- EventBridge Atlas - Discover and document your AWS EventBridge schemas
I'm currently building a tool that will hopefully help all open source engineers in the world.
I want to give open source engineers the ability to quickly create landing pages for their GitHub projects.
I think README.md files can only go so far, but (for me anyway) nothing beats a nice landing page selling your open source project.
Not all of us have the time or skills needed to create landing pages so I built https://gitpages.app that can help everyone.
https://gitpages.app is a tool that hopefully can inspire and help open source engineers. It's still in development but if people are interested let me know.
Cheers!
