Show HN: IndieDevs 2.0 – Developer community and Portfolio Builder

Hi HN, 3 months ago I built indiedevs.me as a simple way for developers to showcase projects, track engagement, and claim a personal portfolio page (like indiedevs.me/username). It grew from a side project into something 90+ devs started using to posting their projects, getting seen, and engage with others.

Why I built it: existing “link-in-bio” tools felt generic. I wanted something developer-first: project showcases, visit counts, click metrics, a project feed and a place where developers are discoverable based on skills. Basically, a lightweight hub where devs could share what they’re building and see real feedback.

What’s new in 2.0 This update goes beyond portfolios into more of a developer community. Highlights: * Skills & discovery – Add structured skills (TypeScript, React, Python, etc.) so employers/collaborators can find you * Feed redesign – better project discovery and search * CV integration – upload/manage your resume alongside your profile * Email & repo showcase – integrated communication + cleaner GitHub project display * Analytics improvements – clearer profile performance * Golden badge system – recognition for early adopters * (Soon) profile backgrounds – light customization

Where it’s heading Next up: * Project upvoting * Follow/following dynamics between developers * Simple posts to share updates The long-term vision is to build “the next indie developer community” – part portfolio, part social layer, designed for devs who want to showcase, connect, and collaborate without drowning in noise.

Would love feedback from HN: * Is this something you’d actually use as a dev? * What features matter most for you in a developer-focused community? https://indiedevs.me
