What is build in public and why should I do it?

Building in public means sharing your development journey on social media as you build your product. It helps you grow an audience, get early feedback, build credibility, and create marketing momentum before you even launch.

How does Makrly generate posts from my commits?

When you push code to GitHub, Makrly reads your commit messages and code changes. Our AI analyzes what you built, filters out mundane commits, and generates engaging social media posts tailored for each platform.

Is my code safe? What permissions do you need?

Yes, your code is safe. We only request read-only access to your repositories. We can't modify your code, create branches, or make any changes. We only read commit messages and diffs to understand what you're building.

Can I use my own AI API key?

Yes! You can bring your own API key from OpenAI, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini, or other providers through OpenRouter. This gives you full control over which AI model generates your posts.

Which platforms are supported?

Currently, Makrly generates posts optimized for X (Twitter), LinkedIn, and Facebook. Each platform gets a different version tailored to its audience and format.

Simpler changelog dashboard with tabs and easy repo switching

Manage your changelog entries and settings more smoothly with a new tabbed layout and a handy dropdown to switch between repositories quickly.

This update makes navigating and managing your changelog smoother and more intuitive by introducing a tabbed interface that groups your entries and settings clearly in one place.

Streamlined navigation
You’ll now find “Entries” and “Settings” tabs that keep everything organized and easily accessible. Filtering your changelog entries is also simpler with inline buttons that let you switch between all, published, or pending items without extra hassle.

Quick repo switching for multi-repo users
If you manage multiple repositories, you’ll appreciate the new dropdown in the header where you can instantly switch which repo you’re viewing, making it easier to jump between projects. Plus, URLs like /changelog now automatically load your first repo’s entries for a faster start.

These improvements tidy up the interface and reduce the clutter, so you can focus on maintaining your changelog with less friction.
