Submit your tool to LibHunt

LibHunt tracks open-source projects and how often they are mentioned on Reddit, Hacker News and Dev.to, and lists alternatives for each. You add a project by pasting its public repository URL, with no account.

Is LibHunt worth it?

Worth it for any product with a public repository. It is free, needs no account, and in November 2026 the links to the repo and the project website on project pages had no rel attribute, so they are followed. It does not fit a closed-source SaaS with no repo. Fill in the website and topics fields so the page links to your site and shows up next to similar projects.

Who should submit to LibHunt?

Suits developers of open-source libraries, CLIs, self-hosted apps and MCP servers with a public repository. Not for closed-source SaaS, mobile apps or anything without a repo, since the whole entry is built around a repository URL. Traffic comes from developers comparing alternatives, so it fits dev tools far better than consumer products.

What you need before you submit

  • A public repository URL
  • A short description, topics and your website URL
  • An open-source project; a hosted product with no repo does not fit

How to submit to LibHunt

  1. Open libhunt.com/repo/submit
  2. Paste the repository URL and continue
  3. Fill in the details the site could not read: description, topics, website, docs
  4. Submit and check your project page under /r/your-project
