How My Open Source Next.js App Got 460+ GitHub Stars and Vercel Recognition

Project

I built and open sourced a full stack Next.js and Supabase blog-app with over 460 GitHub stars. It is a multi user platform with auth, database, storage, and CMS, built with TypeScript and modern Next.js features.

Submission

This is how I submitted my project to Vercel Open Source Program

When Lee Robinson tweeted this, I shared my project.

Recognition

A few weeks later, I received Vercel swag in the mail. It was my first real recognition for open source work, and it motivated me to keep building. I am very grateful.
