Thanks for the nomination, ProductHunt community 😻 Very honored! Hi, everyone! 👋 WhatRuns was launched on August 25th with an overwhelming response from ProductHunt and HackerNews: https://www.producthunt.com/post.... Super-excited for what lies ahead. WR is a free browser extension that shows you what runs a website – from ad networks and developer tools to fonts and Wordpress plugins. You can also follow websites and get notified when they add or remove technologies. - WhatRuns detects technologies, SaaS apps, fonts, Wordpress themes, plugins (tens of thousands of them) to even small SaaS apps with very less adoption – those are the real gems! - Follow feature – keep track of technology stack and get notified when websites adopt/ditch technologies. - Very lightweight and accurate compared to our counterparts. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me anything 😺

Suggestion : Since you can collect data about each site . You turn this data into a useful blog about the trends in programming languages & tools used around the world .

Pros:

Clean Interface, light weight and simple to use..

Cons:

Nothing in particular .

Review WhatRuns?

WhatRuns is a useful tool for identifying technologies on websites, appreciated for its efficiency and ease of use. Users frequently highlight its ability to provide a quick overview of a site's tech stack, though some note limitations in its functionality, such as occasional compatibility issues and the need for a browser extension. While some users desire a web-only version, others find it indispensable for their needs. Overall, it is valued for its straightforward approach to technology discovery.

This tool provides an efficient overview of the current website but cannot search independently. It requires access through the site and its extension.
