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.

Smoother AI search suggestions and clearer error messages

Search suggestions now handle all types of inputs gracefully, badges display fully without cutoff, and any errors are logged with helpful details to troubleshoot faster.

This update makes the AI-powered search suggestions work more reliably and makes it easier to spot and fix issues when they happen.

More robust search terms handling
We’ve improved how search terms from AI responses are processed to make sure they’re always treated as text before searching the database. This means no more hiccups or errors when unexpected input types come through.

Cleaner, friendlier interface
The AI suggestion box now has some extra padding so that completion badges don't get cut off, making the list easier to read and interact with.

Better error visibility for faster fixes
When errors occur on the server side, detailed information now appears in the client console. This gives developers clearer clues to what went wrong, speeding up troubleshooting and improvements.
