Developer Marketing Playbook — DevRel, Docs & Community Funnels
📦 Install
clawhub install developer-marketing-playbook
What you get after installing:
- Developer community building playbook (Discord/Slack/GitHub Discussions)
- Technical content strategy for developer audiences
- DevRel metrics framework (awareness → adoption → advocacy)
Engineers don't respond to traditional marketing. Here's what actually works.
- DevRel program design: Roles, metrics, and activities that drive adoption
- Docs as growth engine: How great documentation becomes your best acquisition channel
- API experience: DX improvements that reduce time-to-first-API-call
- Community funnels: Discord/Slack → contributor → champion → customer pipeline
- Hackathon ROI: When hackathons work, how to run them, and measuring impact
Developer acquisition operating system
Stage 1 — reconstruct category history
Use Wayback snapshots for the competitor's first site, beta site and first major launch. For each stage record positioning, page depth, use cases, navigation/pricing changes, and when SEO/community investment began. This prevents copying a mature competitor's current channel mix into a zero-to-one product.
Stage 2 — benchmark the best channel operator
Do not benchmark every channel against the same competitor. Use the category leader for site/positioning, then select the strongest operator per channel. Track official, founder, DevRel and creator accounts; separate beta cadence, launch-week bursts and steady-state programs.
Required research row:
brand | channel | date | format | category | URL | content framework | views/engagement | campaign membership | CTA
Stage 3 — convert docs into adoption
Measure docs on landing → quick start → first successful call/deploy → second session, not pageviews alone. Every launch packet must include a tested quick start, error recovery, deploy path, reference docs, examples and a community/support next step.
Stage 4 — ecosystem campaign
For an enterprise/open-source campaign, coordinate README, comparison article, ecosystem partners/sponsors, relevant backlinks, community posts and DevRel follow-up. Report impressions and stars separately from activated developers and qualified accounts.
Stage 5 — interview and iterate
Run 1:1 interviews with activated and bounced developers. Ask them to screen-share the workflow, identify the first "aha", and show what they already pay for. If acquisition rises but activation stays below target, pause distribution and fix the product/docs path.
Source framework: Iris competitor-research wiki and open-source global-operations deck supplied for this skill update.

SkillWrites Reddit, Product Hunt, Hacker News , Indie Hackers Community post generator
marcosmodly/marketing-skill · by marcosmodlyWrites Reddit, Product Hunt, Hacker News (Show HN), Indie Hackers (Show IH), dev.to (#showdev), Discord, Slack, and Telegram posts that follow each community's actual rules. Researches that specific subreddit's or site's rules and what currently works there live, verifying each source is about the named target, then gives a plain Go/No-Go and only drafts if the post is welcome, written to read like a person wrote it and in the platform's own format (Slack mrkdwn, Telegram HTML). For Discord, Slack, and private Telegram groups, which have no public rules page, it asks the user for the rules instead of guessing. Use when the user wants to post or promote something in a subreddit, launch on Product Hunt, write a Show HN or Show IH, post on dev.to, or share in a Discord server, Slack workspace, Telegram channel or group, or any other rules-driven community or forum. Not for LinkedIn, X, Instagram, or Facebook posts.★ 42 GitHub stars
