Ever built a small Ruby gem, starter kit, or CLI tool and thought, “I could probably sell this”? The problem is… most platforms want a monthly fee or force you into their ecosystem. That’s where SellRepo comes in — a self-hosted, one-time purchase storefront for selling GitHub-hosted code. No middlemen. No recurring costs.
What is SellRepo?
SellRepo is a self-hosted application designed to help users streamline the monetization of their GitHub source code. There are many factors to consider when selling your code, including how to handle site security and payment processing. SellRepo simplifies the setup required to monetize your source code - whether through one-time payments or recurring subscriptions - giving you the opportunity to share your code with other developers.
The Hidden Value in Your Repositories
As a developer, you have most likely accumulated dozens of repositories in your GitHub account. Whether it’s an authentication library you’ve built for a side project, or an automation script that streamlines a tedious process saving you hours on tasks each week, chances are other developers are searching for tools like these to use in their own workflows.
Many developers would sooner opt to pay for a working solution, rather than spend weeks building these features from scratch. SellRepo enables you to share and monetize the source code you created, and allows other developers to incorporate these tools into their projects.
From Repository to Revenue
SellRepo makes the process of monetizing your GitHub code streamlined and simple. With its structured and guided onboarding process, you can point the application to your GitHub repository, set your price with Stripe, and configure payment processing.
