To be honest, I've been agonizing over the silliest little details on this project for way too long. But "perfect" is the enemy of "shipped." So, I'm officially ripping off the band-aid.
Welcome to the very early version of devv.me.
Right now, the goal is simple: think of it as a Linktree, but specifically designed for developers. We all have our work scattered across GitHub, LinkedIn, personal blogs, and portfolio sites, and I wanted a convenient way to centralize all that engineering and tech content in one spot.

I'm building this with two main scenarios in mind.
For job seekers, if you are looking for a new role, this profile gives hiring managers a snapshot of who you are in 10 to 15 seconds. It saves them from digging through endless tabs to find your best repos, giving you a much faster way to make an impression. (I'm actually planning a couple of AI-related features down the road that will help this a ton).
For creators, creating content or writing code makes it easier for other devs to discover your work. But this isn't just about sharing content—it's about how we consume it. X (Twitter) and social media in general are getting way too distracting. I love the community, but every time I log in to check on things, I end up doom-scrolling and wasting way too much time. That's why I'm building a "Follow" feature where you receive updates only from the creators you care about. No noise, no distractions, just the content you want. This is a feature I desperately want to use myself.
I have a ton of ideas to make this a powerful platform, but I want to build it in public and get some feedback.
So please, take a look and let me know what you think. What's broken? What's missing? What features would actually help you?
