DevHunt started with one tweet: "If this gets 100 likes, I'm making it."
It got 109.
Built fully in public with open-source contributors.
Won #1 on Product Hunt. Rejected VC funding to stay independent.
Reached #2 launchpad in the world within 2 years.
200K+ visits, 100K+ developers, 10K+ users. Still free. Still open source.
DevHunt is an open-source Product Hunt alternative built specifically for developer tools, with weekly competitions and community voting.
I had a few thousand followers on X.
I posted one tweet:
"Product Hunt is becoming overcrowded and fake. Is there an alternative for DEV tools? If not, I'll create one that only allows open source and premium dev tool posts. If this idea gets 100 likes, I'm making it happen."
It got 109 likes. 21 replies. 39,400 views.
That was the validation.
