Ask HN: How do you market a side project?

3•ruairidhwm•1h ago
I've got a side project I've worked on for a while and I'm happy with the engineering side, but I'm terrible at marketing. I've made a couple of reddit comments, shown friends who would benefit from my project, but what is the best way to get it out there?

Search HN this has been answered many times.

It has, but there are always new perspectives.
unsupp0rted•1h ago
Who’s it for? Where do those people learn about new things?
ruairidhwm•27m ago
I'd say ICs and Team Leads in eng organisations. So far I'm thinking Reddit and HN? Maybe a bit of LinkedIn
