IndieDeveloper.org is a free community directory of independent developers, their projects and technology stacks. It brings the people behind independent projects into one place, helping visitors discover makers and explore what they are building.
Visitors can browse developer profiles, filter by specialty, and explore the tools makers use. Profiles connect a developer with their projects and technology choices, giving readers more context than a product name alone. The directory is designed for people interested in independent development, bootstrapping, community and building in public. Browsing maker profiles can also provide inspiration for a project or introduce visitors to tools used by other builders.
Developers can create and preview their own profiles through the website. GitHub sign-in connects each maker to their profile, and new profiles are reviewed before publication. Once a profile is approved, its owner can keep projects and profile details up to date on the site.
The website also supports compatible AI agents through its Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. Makers can use an agent to help prepare a profile or update an approved one with authorization. This offers another way to maintain a profile alongside the website workflow; it does not remove the review requirement for new profiles.
IndieDeveloper.org is free to use. It focuses on discovering independent makers, understanding their work and sharing projects with a community of fellow builders.
