For developers

Ship a Dashlet.
Reach people tired of stuff.

We host. We distribute. We handle the money. You ship one small tool that does its job. Same code powers iOS when we launch it.

  title: "App Store Screenshot Resizer",
  tagline: "Drop a screenshot. Get every size Apple wants.",

Distribution

Land in the catalog.

When someone types what your tool fixes, you show up. Hybrid fuzzy + LLM search means natural-language queries reach you.

Payments

Free or paid. We handle the money.

Stripe is wired in. Set your own price or ship free. We take 20% on paid Dashlets, you keep 80. No fees on free tools.

Cross-platform

iOS comes for free.

Manifests are portable JSON. The same Dashlet ships on iOS the moment we launch the app, with no extra work from you.

How it works

Two files. One Dashlet.

A Dashlet is a manifest plus an implementation. The manifest describes the tool. The implementation builds it. That's it.

Write the manifest

A small TypeScript object: slug, title, tagline, category, keywords, pricing, status. Validated by Zod at build time.

Write the React component

One default-exported React component. Use any client-side libraries: Canvas, WebAssembly, fetch. Most tools never touch a server.

We publish it

Once approved, your Dashlet is live at tiredof.app/dashlet/your-slug, and at /by/your-handle as part of your portfolio.

FAQ

Questions you might have.

When does the dev portal open?+

We're building it. Waitlist members get the first invites. No firm date; we'd rather ship it right than ship it soon.

What stack do I need to know?+

The manifest is a TypeScript object validated by Zod. The implementation is a React component. We use Tailwind v4 and Geist for shared design. You can use them or bring your own styles.

Who owns the Dashlet code?+

You do. We license what we need to host and distribute it. Pull your Dashlet anytime; we'll deactivate the listing.

Can I use server-side code?+

Most Dashlets run entirely client-side. That's what makes them fast. For tools that genuinely need a server (OCR, video transcoding), we'll provide hosted endpoints once the portal opens.

What about my own users / analytics?+

You get aggregate usage stats per Dashlet (visits, clicks, conversions). We don't sell user data, and neither can you. That's in the publisher agreement.

Is there a quality bar?+

Yes. We approve every Dashlet before it goes live. The bar is “does it actually do the thing it says?”, not a beauty contest.

Build the thing you keep wishing existed.

We'll bring the audience.
