Your Go-To Hub for Developer Deals This Black Friday
Black Friday and Cyber Monday are like the Super Bowl for developers looking to upgrade their toolkits. But let's be real - wading through hundreds of deals across different websites and newsletters is exhausting. You're probably wondering if you're missing the best discounts while drowning in promotional emails.
That's where this curated GitHub repository comes in handy. It's essentially a community-driven treasure map for developers seeking software deals, and it's been consistently updated for years.
What It Does
Awesome Black Friday Cyber Monday is a massive, organized collection of deals specifically tailored for developers and tech enthusiasts. The repository categorizes discounts across various software categories - from IDEs and developer tools to SaaS platforms, APIs, and cloud services.
It's not just another list; it's structured with clear sections, includes direct links, and shows pricing details so you can quickly scan for what matters to you.
Why It's Cool
What makes this repository stand out is its community-driven approach. Unlike corporate-run deal sites, this is built by developers for developers. The maintainer and contributors actively verify and organize deals, filtering out the noise to surface genuinely useful discounts.
The categorization is particularly thoughtful. You'll find sections for:
- Developer tools and IDEs
- AI and machine learning services
- Cloud infrastructure and hosting
- APIs and data services
- Productivity and business software
It's also transparent about affiliate links and maintains a clean, no-nonsense format that respects your time. No flashy banners, no hidden agendas - just straightforward information about which tools are on sale.
How to Check It Out
Head over to the GitHub repository at github.com/trungdq88/Awesome-Black-Friday-Cyber-Monday.
The main README serves as the central hub, with tables organized by category. You can simply browse through the deals or use your browser's find function to search for specific tools you've been eyeing. The repository is updated throughout the Black Friday/Cyber Monday period, so it's worth bookmarking and checking back regularly.
Final Thoughts
As developers, we're always looking for ways to work smarter, and this repository is a perfect example of the community solving a common pain point. Instead of each of us individually hunting for deals, we have a centralized resource that gets better every year.
