Not entirely related to the product, since I am midway through the signup but something about the Auth that I thought you should take a look at right away; more so when you say Pinterest for "programmers" :)

A password field that's a text field?

The thing I don't get about this is that it puts the entire focus on the picture representing the project, which is supposed to revolve around being "made with code".

Shouldn't the code/language/libraries used or even the title stand out more than the picture?

Other than that, pretty cool idea.

"a place for developers to collect and share open source projects made with code." - If you are looking for this, I'd recommend giving a try to LibHunt https://www.libhunt.com/

Seems more like "Pinterest for Arduino and Pi enthusiasts", to me. You say "For Programmers" and I expect something a little less hardware-y, despite the obvious overlap in interests and the programming aspect to the hardware.

It seems quite inconvenient to use.

One of the posts is just a raspberri pi picture. You have to go to the "source" to get what it's actually about. The whole idea of pinterest and co is that you can browse lots of content just by swiping, not by having to click through on each one.

Maybe add a link to the source on the Cards themselves, saving a useless page load, or expand inline somehow?

As someone who develops in PHP, and continues to be generally annoyed by the way many HN commenters will dismiss the language out of hand, I really hate to be the one saying this.

However, while PHP has come a long way and modernised significantly in terms of development practise, WordPress is really not an example of that modernisation. It may have applications for a basic blog, but I find it very difficult to take a Wordpress-built project seriously when it's supposedly aimed at developers and includes auth/signup + handling user credentials.

If I can read content without login, that's a very poor pinterest clone ;)

Isn't the whole idea of Pinterest that you can just make this with Pinterest itself ?

The general idea is pretty cool. The main question is probably what the images should link to and what images to use for contributions that don't have a dedicated page (just github). I think the default link should be to the code but links to videos or overview pages are also fine.

I think the idea is generally a good one, people can post cool stuff they work on and it can even be a good source of inspiration for non-programmers or people only loosely interested (I'm thinking of journalists, teachers, parents and curious youngsters answering the question "what cool stuff can be done with technology"). Could also have some job market/finding employees implications (maybe a possible monetization route?).

Just a heads up that Google has a large learn to code campaign called "Made with Code" – it's the first thing I thought of when I saw this project.

Also known as GitHub

Put up a project, was there for a couple hours then the project was some how deleted. You may have a vulnerability somewhere.

When submitting a new link, I receive "Sorry, Unable to find any pinnable items" - what counts as a pinnable item?

I can't make heads or tails of this thing. And I don't know what the heck is Pinterest, so I can't compare.

Maybe add an option to view content with standard pagination?

I read "Projects made with Coke".

... er, Instructables?
