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 demo projects and helpful management tools

Creating demo projects is now more reliable and interactive, with clearer error handling and new tools to help manage them with ease.

We've improved the experience around demo projects to make things run more smoothly and predictably. When you create a demo project during signup or profile completion, the process now happens immediately and with better error messages if something goes wrong, so you're never left wondering what happened.

Clearer project status
Demo projects are now flagged more transparently in the system, which helps any scripts or tools identify them easily. This makes the behind-the-scenes management smarter and less error-prone.

New management scripts
To give more control and ease in handling demo projects, we've added handy utility scripts. Whether you want to update or manage demo canvases manually, these scripts make it simpler and faster, so everything stays organized without hassle.
