我在哪里可以推广Rails应用程序？

Question

I am currently writing a FOSS Rails app and would like to get some ideas about where to promote the application. I am searching for something like opensourcerails.com or wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/OpenSourceProjects

Answer 1

Put it on github, too - it's social, Rails-oriented and free repos have to be open-source.

Edit: I'd get in touch with the leading blogs about it, then. They'll get word out way faster than if it's simply sitting on a static list of projects.

Answer 2

Don't promote it as a Rails application. Promote it as an application that solves whatever problem your application is meant to solve. I doubt there are very many people who sit around thinking, "Boy, I'd sure like to run a Rails application. I wonder what app I could run." Rather, they think something like, "Boy, I sure wish there were a FOSS liveblogging app with Twitter integration."

Answer 3

尝试找到可以从使用您的应用程序中受益的人并告诉他们。

Working With Rails has a showcase section (previously HappyCodr)

You can also post to these sites:

Answer 6

你可以要求那些做各种铁路播客的人提一下。

Answer 7

Announce it on the rubyonrails-talk mailing list where people from all around the world subscribe to. From there, if you keep doing good things the word-of-mouth should spread it around.

If we knew what your app did we could be more precise about where to put these kinds of things.
