DEVAE is in open beta — what works, what is next

No waitlist, no card. Here is exactly what you can do on DEVAE today, what is rough, and what we are building next.

DEVAE is open. Anyone can sign up, post, open a live room and install the CLI without a waitlist or a card. This post is the honest state of the product so you know what to expect before you invite your team.

What works today

  • The feed: post what you shipped, drop code with syntax highlighting, tag it, and follow people whose stack matches yours.
  • Live rooms: voice, screen share and terminal share in the browser or the desktop app. Rooms are invite-only by default.
  • Profiles: your posts, rooms and projects in one public URL you can put in a README.
  • Snippets with collaborators, direct messages, notifications and 1:1 calls.
  • Apps for macOS, Windows and Linux, an Android app, and a CLI that logs you in and joins rooms from the terminal.

What is rough

  • A live room is owned by the host's tab. If the host closes the tab, the room ends. We are moving room state to the server.
  • Search is basic. It matches usernames and post text, not code.
  • The mobile app follows rooms but does not host them yet.

What is next

Persistent rooms with recordings, tag hubs that are worth bookmarking, and the co-founder matching flow we have been testing in private. Each of these ships as a post on the feed first, then here.

If something breaks, the feedback page goes straight to the people building this. Thank you for building with us this early.
