Your whole dev world, distilled into one personalized feed. daily.dev pulls the best engineering articles, tutorials, and discussions from 2,000+ trusted sources — including the GitHub Blog, Dev.to, freeCodeCamp, and hundreds more — then AI and a community of over a million developers cut it down to what actually matters for your stack. Signal, not noise. The more you read, the sharper it gets. It learns from you, and from what a million other developers find worth reading. :trophy: Product Hunt — Golden Kitty Award winner :star: 18,000+ GitHub stars, fully open source at github.com/dailydotdev WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU OPEN THE APP :one: Your feed is already yours. Technical articles, tutorials, and community discussions from 2,000+ sources, matched to your stack from the start. :two: Caught up in minutes, not hours. AI summarizes the noise away and a million developers upvote the good stuff to the top — so you read what's worth reading and skip the rest. :three: Every article is a conversation. See what other engineers think, add your take, and learn from the comments — the real insight is often there. :four: A calm daily habit. Build a reading streak, unlock achievements, and grow a developer profile over time. Come back because it's useful, not because it nags. :five: Find your people. Join a Squad around React, DevOps, AI, cloud, mobile, open source — or anything you care about. Share links, start discussions, learn together. Public or private. :bulb: WHY IT FEELS DIFFERENT Most tools in this space are glorified RSS readers or pure-algorithm feeds. daily.dev is different because the community is built in. Developers upvote articles, which teaches the system what actually matters — not just what's new, but what's good. Discussions add context you can't get from reading alone. Squads create focused curation around every topic and language. And AI personalizes on top of all of it, matched to your specific stack. Think of it as a feed curated by a senior engineer who shares your exact interests. :hammer_and_wrench: FEATURES (all free) • Personalized reading from 2,000+ sources, powered by AI + community signals • Multiple views: Popular, Upvoted, Discussed, Following • Custom feeds for different interests and stacks • Squads — communities around any topic • Reading streaks, achievements, and leaderboards • DevCard — a shareable developer identity card • Bookmarks with folders • Search across millions of posts • Dark mode and light mode • Syncs seamlessly across all your devices :dart: WHO IT'S FOR • Developers who want what matters without opening 10 sites every morning • Engineers who learn better when they can see what peers think is worth reading • Anyone who wants a daily reading habit that builds over time • Teams that share and discuss technical articles in private Squads :gem: daily.dev Plus Unlock premium features: • Presidential Briefing — a personal agent scans the landscape daily, analyzes 100+ posts, and delivers one concise briefing • Smart Titles — rewrites clickbait headlines so you know what you're actually clicking • Clickbait Shield — detects and replaces misleading titles automatically
