Developer tool directories: where to submit
Developer tool directories are browsed by engineers looking for a library, API or service to solve a specific problem. Developers want proof it works: docs, a quick-start and a repo or code sample. A listing that links straight to documentation usually does better than one that links to a marketing page.
