Show & Tell

A community for developers to share personal projects of any size or polish. Anything software/firmware/hardware… ALL THE WARES!! Side projects, experiments, learning builds, half-finished ideas — all welcome.

Explain what you built, why you built it, and what you learned. Give feedback if you can. Ask for feedback if you want.

Rules

Personal projects only (no company or paid product marketing)
Include context: what it is, what tech you used, what you learned
Be constructive and respectful
No spam or referral farming
Feedback is encouraged, not mandatory
Mark NSFW content clearly
If you see a project you like and you think is cool consider giving it a star!

AI Rules

Guys it’s 2026, if you’re not using AI at this point you’re falling behind. That being said this community is not for showing off AI prompts that you put into gh Copilot or Claude or whatever, all that’s showing the world is “hey I know how to make something up and explain it in 20 words while having the expectations of a team who gives a shit! Woow look at me!!”.

So do your best to disclose where/how/why you used AI in your code, and if you suspect a project is entirely AI generated slop, don’t engage, don’t bully, just let them eat their foot ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

Icon and Banner were generated using ChatGPT, they’re placeholders as of 1/20/26, will replace them with real art soon! https://chatgpt.com/share/696fa8bc-f3e0-8012-b6d7-350a8b53a0e1

programming.dev

A collection of programming communities

Welcome Programmers!

programming.dev is a collection of programming communities and other topics relevant to software engineers, hackers, roboticists, hardware and software enthusiasts, and more.

The site is primarily english with some communities in other languages. We are connected to many other sites using the activitypub protocol that you can view posts from in the “all” tab while the “local” tab shows posts on our site.

🔗 Site with links to all relevant programming.dev sites

🟩 Not a fan of the default UI? We have alternate frontends we host that you can view the same content from

ℹ️ We have a wiki site that communities can host documents on

⚖️ All users are expected to follow our Code of Conduct and the other various documents on our legal site

🏘️ Want to create a new community? Please follow our Community Guidelines

❤️ The site is run by a team of volunteers. If youre interested in donating to help fund things such as server costs you can do so here

💬 We have a microblog site aimed towards programmers available at https://bytes.programming.dev/

🛠️ We have a forgejo instance for hosting git repositories relating to our site and the fediverse. If you have a project that relates and follows our Code of Conduct feel free to host it there and if you have ideas for things to improve our sites feel free to create issues in the relevant repositories. To go along with the instance we also have a site for sharing small code snippets that might be too small for their own repository.

🌲 We have a discord server and a matrix space for chatting with other members of the community. These are bridged to each other (so you can interact with people using matrix from discord and vice versa.
