Working on a side project is something a lot of us share. Whether it’s an open source resource, a blog, etc., all ideas, as crazy as they are, have some sort of potential. Yet one thing I've realized is that there's really no organized service that's designed to allow you to share side projects and to garner feedback on them.

That’s what sideprojects.net is. It’s a platform where you can share your side projects and get feedback, ideas, and even support on them. It’s 100% free to use as well :)

The readme says that 'for profit' projects aren't allowed. Side projects can't be created for the purpose of making money? I'm not sure I understand the purpose of that restriction... Other than that, looks awesome

Thanks! There's definitely no problem with making a bit of money through a side project. Perhaps I worded it poorly, but that restriction was put in place to prevent companies/established organizations from posting their products on the platform as the site is meant for individuals to post their side projects. I'll rephrase it, thanks for pointing it out.

This is a great explanation and should be displayed somewhere on the site.

Great project! there's definitely some interesting things to explore here.

I had an issue though, I clicked the top link on:

https://sideprojects.net/posts/7YZPLbcugbCyf94GY/non-vocal-m...

to visit the site and it takes me to

https://sideprojects.net/out?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.programme...

which is 404. hope it's a quick fix :)

Have you listed this as your own side project on there? ;)
