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.

Streamlined portal toolbar with personalized branding and easier navigation

We've integrated the portal header directly into the design canvas toolbar, making your workspace cleaner and more intuitive while showing your contractor's branding for a personalized experience.

This update brings the portal header into the YardDesignCanvas toolbar, simplifying the layout so you can focus more on your design work without distractions.

Personalized branding and navigation
Instead of the generic YardPal logo, you'll now see your contractor's logo and name when in portal mode, creating a more cohesive and professional feel. We’ve also reorganized the toolbar actions, moving 'My Projects' into a dropdown menu to keep things tidy, while keeping 'Submit for Quote' easily accessible as a dedicated button.

Smooth access to your projects
Navigating to your projects is now smoother with the new dropdown menu option and an intuitive callback that keeps everything responsive. Overall, this change cleans up the interface and streamlines your workflow so you can spend less time clicking around and more time designing.
