# WeMakeDevs

> WeMakeDevs produces growth for developer-first companies. It runs the world's most engaging hackathons and meetups, backed by a global community of 200,000+ developers across 40 countries. Companies partner with WeMakeDevs to put their product in front of builders who actually ship: the outcome is GitHub stars, API signups, merged pull requests, and real developer adoption — not vanity metrics. Founded by Kunal Kushwaha.

## What WeMakeDevs does

WeMakeDevs is a go-to-market engine for developer tools. Tell them your GTM goals and they organize an in-person or virtual hackathon; you leave with GitHub stars, signups, and a community that has already tried your product. Enterprise GTM spends a quarter to get a handful of engineers to open your docs — a hackathon does it in a week: hundreds of builders reading the docs on day one, calling your API by day three, and pushing public repos with your product in the stack by day seven.

- Open-source engagement, not vanity metrics: thousands of engineers using partner projects, giving feedback, and contributing back — most of it inside the event week.
- Contributions, not just clicks: builders file issues, fix bugs, and ship merged PRs (400+ merged into partner repos).
- Hackathons as the new GTM pipeline: developer adoption in a week instead of a quarter.
