So I recently created a website https://gidgitz.com which is a website to help developers with some tools and resources they use daily. I would love to meet a few developers that would like to be part of the project. I want to start off small so we can organize and get a flow going.
I hope to keep it free if possible, as I'm a dad and can't really afford an expensive server fee lol. If you want to contribute (no pay :P) just to be part of it and add your touch to it, then message me!
Thank you!

Have you considered building your tools into an IDE plugin/extension? For example, for VS Code using the Extension API?
A few points:
1) You could say, one goal of a tool-maker is to be "readily available", to minimize the gap between a) wanting to use a tool, and b) actually accessing/using it. By being directly in an IDE, you really minimize that gap (for users of that IDE).
2) VS Code is really well thought-out, I'm impressed.
3) Tools can live everywhere. You can do a website and a plugin/extension, etc. Of course its more time/effort.
I would offer to help but I have negligible free time for the foreseeable future!
Hi, I would really like to contribute to the back-end of the site. Let me know if we can connect and discuss about it.

What stack? I'm looking to learn something new!
The stack is nextjs/react, scss. The backend api will been via nodejs but is not being applied yet.
