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.

Easily add plants to your design and track favorites

Now you can add plants directly to your design canvas with a simple click and keep better track of your favorite plants using a new hearted filter. Plus, plant quantities update automatically to help estimate costs.

This update makes it quicker and more fun to build your garden designs by letting you add plants straight from the library into your canvas with just one click. Instead of extra steps, plants appear instantly in your layout, speeding up your creative process.

Visuals that make sense
Plants now display their real images from our database for a clearer view of what you'll be adding. If an image isn’t available, we use a friendly emoji so nothing feels missing.

Stay organized with favorites and cost tracking
You can now filter your plant library by the ones you’ve hearted, making it easy to revisit your favorites. The hearted filter even shows how many you’ve saved. On top of that, every time you add a plant, the system automatically updates your cost estimator with the quantity you’ve chosen, helping you keep your budget in check without any extra effort.
