A query parameter would be useful, to be able to skip the landing page and go directly to the answer. With Phind, for instance, I can do `https://www.phind.com/search?q=foobar`.

I got some partial/incomplete answers on Fast mode, but changing it to Smart mode immediately improved the quality of the output.

Would be nice if you could +/- the output, just my 2c.

I wonder if he used phind to build his phind competitor.

emm... It's pretty obvious that you just copy devv.ai, even the icons are similar lol.

Making a cloning product and public to all may not be a good idea

> Google SSO Login

    Would you be OK using a Github login on stuff like this? Or would you be OK just using tokens emailed to you as a means to login? The reason I'm asking is because I don't like passwords and so designed a password-less login system that relies on emailed tokens and 2FA, with either the Authenticator app or texts.

      OK, I'll add Github login next week. Thanks.

        GitHub login is a great idea for this.

        Offering only Google leaves out the majority of small business (and big business!) coders worldwide who rely on Microsoft's small business ecosystem.

        To solve in a generalized way consider OpenID Connect (OIDC) that lets you put a stack of "Sign in with [account]" or "Continue with [account]" buttons, easily.

        You end up with this:

        https://www.xsplit.com/user/auth

        And you don't need the complicated "SSO" stuff.

        Another example:

        https://id.atlassian.com/login

        But it's better to not need to implement username/password login at all, meaning you don't have any usernames or passwords to steal or lose.

This is sooo good... how are you guys making money since you are offering it for free?

    Yes! Same question. Also, how are you different from Phind and Blackbox? I’m a newbie dev and have been using mostly Phind for dev search.
