Add UnfoldCMS UnfoldCMS is a self-hosted CMS built on Laravel 12 + React 19 + shadcn/ui. Key features:** REST API v1 with full CRUD, Sanctum auth HMAC-signed outgoing webhooks Headless mode โ works with Next.js, Astro, SvelteKit, Nuxt Clean shadcn/ui admin panel Self-hosted, source-available (free to self-host) Live demo: https://demo.unfoldcms.com Fits this list's CMS section as a self-hosted alternative to Strapi and Contentful, built on PHP/Laravel for indie developers who prefer running their own stack.
The toolkit covers infra, auth, databases, analytics, and marketing, but there's no Security section yet โ a real gap for indie devs shipping AI-generated apps. This PR adds a section (with a ToC entry, matching the existing Overview + table format) featuring CheckVibe: paste a URL and it scans a deployed app for 100+ security issues โ exposed keys, open Supabase tables, missing headers โ plus SEO and AEO/AI-visibility, with copy-paste AI fixes. Free tier, no signup to scan. Happy to adjust placement or wording. Thanks for the great list!
Summary Adds Marteso to the Idea Validation section under Marketing & Growth. Marteso is an App Store Optimization (ASO) tool built specifically for indie developers and solo founders โ the exact audience of this list. It offers: Keyword tracking and difficulty scoring AI-generated App Store metadata (title, subtitle, keywords) Competitor analysis and market research A permanent free tier, with paid plans starting at โฌ18/month (vs. enterprise tools like Sensor Tower at $450+/month) It fits naturally alongside Sensor Tower in the Idea Validation section since both help indie devs research the App Store before and after launch.
