You can install a plugin here : https://devglobe.app/plugins
Thanks ! Hope to see you on the globe !
Appreciate it ! That's the goal !
No problem ! Feel free to share it with your developer friends!
Hey! The Zed extension is ready : We're currently waiting for marketplace approval, but you can already install it as a dev extension: git clone https://github.com/CaadriFR/zed-devglobe.git Then in Zed: `Cmd+Shift+P` (macOS) / `Ctrl+Shift+P` (Linux/Windows) → "zed: install dev extension" → select the folder. **Setup macOS / Linux:** mkdir -p ~/.devglobe echo -n "devglobe_YOUR_KEY" > ~/.devglobe/api_key echo '{"shareRepo": false, "anonymousMode": true}' > ~/.devglobe/config.json **Setup Windows (PowerShell):** New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path "$env:USERPROFILE\.devglobe" "devglobe_YOUR_KEY" | Out-File -NoNewline "$env:USERPROFILE\.devglobe\api_key" '{"shareRepo": false, "anonymousMode": true}' | Out-File "$env:USERPROFILE\.devglobe\config.json" Requires Node.js 18+. Full docs in the [README](https://github.com/CaadriFR/zed-devglobe). We'll let you know when it's available directly on the Zed marketplace!
Your actual location is never sent to our servers! Instead, we uses the center of your city. You can enable anonymous mode, and the extension will place you in a random city within your country.
If they're in anonymous mode, it's noted on their card. This allows us to still see the developers on the map, and their country still gives us some information. Unfortunately, if someone uses a VPN, they can currently fake their location.
The “Act on your behalf” message is automatically shown by GitHub for OAuth Apps. DevglobeApp uses GitHub OAuth only to authenticate users and access the GitHub API with the permissions granted by the user. In our case, it is used to: • verify the user’s GitHub identity • read basic profile information and email • determine which repositories or organizations the user has access to The app only requests the minimum scopes required and does not perform actions such as pushing code or modifying repositories.
We don't make any money, our goal with this project is to build a large community of developers
Actually, it's the center of your city; there's no way to verify your actual location !
No personal data is sent; only the approximate location of your city is shared, and you can disable this feature using anonymous mode (which displays a random city within your country). We prioritize security, which is also why our extensions are open-source
Thanks, really appreciate that! A community space is definitely something we’re thinking about. For now we’re focusing on building something solid that anyone can join easily, and especially adding social features directly on the site so developers can connect there in a simple and passive way. Once the project matures a bit more, we’ll very likely open a Discord community so people can chat, share ideas, and follow the project more closely. And honestly the “introvert-friendly” aspect you mention is exactly part of the vision, being able to feel connected to other devs without needing to be super social !
I can see you ! Feel free to share it with your developer friends!
Thanks, hope to see you pop up on the globe !
Thanks ! See you on the globe
The default setting for the Claude Code plugin is false too
You can already disable repo sharing from the extension!! No need to rename it
Funny you say that, the idea of a “Snapchat for developers” is actually not that far from the vision. What kind of features would you imagine?
Thanks, I really appreciate it! Hope to see you pop up on the map!
I'm really glad you like it! Feel free to share it with your developer friends!
We're working hard right now, we'll have something like this out soon! We're focusing on optimization and the extensions available in most IDEs today.
I'm currently working on this, many more IDEs will be available! See you on the globe !
Maybe we should replace it with some general statistics?
Sure, this is on the roadmap !
That's a good idea !
Thanks! Hope to see you pop up on the map!
Filters are coming, we have a leaderboard and stats, and you can showcase your projects, that's pretty much the idea !
