Submit your project

List your open-source GitHub repo on RepoRanker.

Free listing. 800+ character peer reviews. A public leaderboard with published ranking rules. Not a black-box feed. Live in minutes.

One click. No card. We only request your public GitHub profile.

800-character minimum reviews. Real feedback, not thumbs.

Why maintainers list here

A 60-second listing buys you four things you can't get on GitHub Trending, Show HN, or Product Hunt. And the credit economy means contributors, not algorithms, decide who gets visibility.

Substantive peer reviews

Reviewers must write at least 800 characters of real feedback per repo. Not stars, emojis, or one-liners. Every released review is attributed to a public GitHub developer.

Transparent leaderboard

The default 'Top' sort is published, deterministic, and the same for everyone: active boosts, then GitHub stars, then recency. No hidden engagement model deciding who you reach.

Persistent visibility

Unlike a launch-day push, your listing keeps appearing on the leaderboard, topic pages, and the directory for as long as you're active. Reviews live on your repo page forever.

Earn-by-contributing economy

Every account starts with 25 free credits. Write a review and earn 10 more. Spend credits to boost your repo, or pay USD if you'd rather not review.

What happens after you click submit

Four steps, ~60 seconds. The first three happen on this site. The fourth is your repo going live and being reviewable to every visitor.

01
Sign in with GitHub
GitHub-only auth. No email-only or anonymous accounts. Takes one click and never costs anything.
02
Paste your repo URL
We auto-pull description, topics, license, language breakdown, star count, and a README snippet so you don't have to fill anything out twice.
03
Add a 10–160 char tagline
One line that tells a developer what your project does and who it's for. The tagline drives clicks from the leaderboard.
04
Go live on the board
Your repo appears on the leaderboard immediately. No approval queue. Share the link and the page is reviewable from minute one.

What you can list

We're intentionally loose on what counts as a project, but strict on quality and authenticity. The full content policy covers the edge cases.

Public GitHub repository (any owner: yours or your org's)
Any language, framework, or topic. No category gatekeeping.
Forks and archived repos are accepted (clearly labelled)
Private repos, mirrors, content farms, or trademark-violating projects
Affiliate-only landing pages with no real source code

GitHub-only sign-in

Every reviewer is tied to a public developer identity. No throwaway accounts.

48-hour dispute window

You can flag any review left on your repo before it releases or earns credits.

Published ranking rules

Default sort is deterministic and visible. Same inputs, same order, for everyone.

Common questions before you submit

Is it really free?

Yes. Submitting and appearing on the leaderboard is free forever. You only pay when you choose a paid boost. You can always earn the same boosts with credits by reviewing other projects instead.

Why do I have to sign in with GitHub?

GitHub-only sign-in is part of how we keep reviews honest: every reviewer is tied to a public developer profile, no anonymous accounts, no throwaways. We only request the public profile scope at sign-in.

Can I list a repo I don't own?

Yes. Anyone can list any active public GitHub repo, the same way GitHub Trending or Awesome lists do. The owner gets credit and dispute rights on reviews left for the project.

Will listing my repo affect my GitHub repo?

Not at all. We never write to your repo and never push code, issues, or PRs. We read public metadata (description, topics, license, stars, README excerpt). The same things github.com/owner/repo serves to anyone.

What happens to bad reviews?

Every review enters a 48-hour dispute window. If the maintainer flags it as low-effort, off-topic, or dishonest, the review doesn't release and the reviewer earns no credits. Honest critical feedback is allowed; lazy or fake feedback is not.
