ah yeah sorry i haven't actually posted it publicly yet!


thanks for the feedback, i'm trying to better my frontend skill so i really appreciate this!


yeah im not sure what vercel is doing. Try this url https://boilermate.vercel.app ?


i love the idea, simple but effective!


Hey Im Jack! Im the creator of boilermate.site I just wanted to add some context to the creation of this app! I have always loved the use of boilerplates when it comes to programming, it saves all that headache of the setup and gets you right into action, but there wasn't really a nice place to find boilerplates that are cool and trending! boilermate.site was created with Sveltekit and mongoDB using mongoose. This was the first time using mongoose and i wasn't too keen on it. I wrote all of the auth and logic myself for this and i will be honest the code is bloody awful.. as i really underestimated the amount of work needed to get this up... (guest authentication...). I think i will stick to using lucia-auth and postgres... Any questions or something which is god awful let me know! Thanks, Jack Sansom


Nice site. I think this will come in handy. Here's some notes.

  - title length limit seems too short
  - 5 tags seems too limiting--when looking for a specific combination of tags better to list everything
  - clicking on a tag takes you directly to the link unexpectedly (even if it's the only one)
  - being able to search for multiple (AND) tags is the killer feature


love the idea. reminds me of gitignore.io. Two remarks. I'd choose a different emoji for downvotes and second, how do I add a logo when entering a new tag/tech?


hey thanks for the feedback, currently you cant its just if its in the dev icon list im checking! But you can add a custom tag by just typing it!
