Frequently Asked Questions
Should I build a CLI or web-based developer tool?
Web-based tools have lower friction for trial. Consider offering both - a web UI for exploration and a CLI for power users. Our blueprints show how to share logic between both.
How do I market to developers?
Write technical content, contribute to open source, and be active on Twitter/X and Hacker News. Developers trust other developers, so authenticity matters.
