Hi HN,

I’ve been working on a small open source CLI tool in my spare time and recently reached a point where it feels “done enough” to share — but I’m unsure what the right next steps are.

So far I’ve tried: - Writing a clear README with examples - Adding documentation and usage guides on my docs website - Sharing it in one or two relevant discussions (without spamming)

I’m explicitly not trying to market it aggressively — I’d rather get it in front of the right people and receive honest feedback.

For those of you who’ve shipped open source projects that actually got adopted: What made the biggest difference early on? What do you wish you had done sooner?

If it helps, the project it's the link if you have any tips

Thanks!

Making the text of the link to it completely irrelevant, so people are fooled into clicking it, is 1000 times worse than self-promotion. You've done it more than once.
