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.

Instant feedback when tracking material usage

We've improved how material usage updates in your designs, so you’ll see your recent activity reflected immediately without delay.

We've streamlined the way your design elements track material usage by fixing the endpoint that handles updates. This means your actions now communicate smoothly with the server, ensuring accuracy behind the scenes.

Faster and more responsive updates
To enhance your experience, we've added an optimistic update feature that immediately reflects your recent usage in the interface. This means you no longer have to wait for confirmation to see your changes in the Recently Used list, making your workflow feel quicker and more natural.

Behind the scenes, the system now keeps a more accurate count of how often materials are used, so your design data stays reliable and up to date as you work.
