Forever, no trial
The whole dev world, distilled.
daily.dev pulls thousands of sources into a single ranked feed. Only what is worth reading, none of the noise. It opens with every new tab, so keeping up costs you nothing extra.
-
Personalized feed
A ranked feed built from what you read, upvote, and follow. It gets sharper the more you use it, and it never shows you the same post twice.
-
New tab takeover
The browser extension replaces the blank new-tab page with your feed. Nothing else about your browser changes, and you can switch it back whenever you like.
-
Presidential briefing
An AI brief that compresses everything that mattered since you last looked into a two-minute read. Free users get a briefing regularly; Plus removes the cap.
-
Breaking news
The stories blowing up right now, surfaced before they reach the rest of the internet. Ranked by what the community is actually reacting to.
-
Follow tags and sources
Follow the languages, frameworks, tools, and publications you care about. Unfollow anything that stops earning its place in the feed.
- Plus
Advanced custom feeds
Build a second, third, and fourth feed scoped to one topic, so a focused reading session does not have to fight your main feed.
- Plus
Keyword filters
Mute the buzzwords you are sick of hearing. More signal, less noise, applied across every feed you have.
- Plus
AI-powered clean titles
AI rewrites clickbait headlines so you see the real story at a glance and open the post only when it is genuinely relevant.
- Plus
Auto-translate
Post titles and summaries translated into your language, so an English-first ecosystem stops being a reading tax.
- Plus
Ad-free reading
The free feed carries developer-relevant ads, and they are what keeps the product free. Plus turns them off entirely.
Read it now, or find it later.
Opening an article should not mean losing your place, and saving one should not mean losing it forever. The reader, bookmarks, and search are the three pieces that make daily.dev a place you actually return to.
-
Built-in reader
Articles open inside daily.dev with the discussion beside them and your actions one click away. No tab sprawl, no losing the thread.
-
Bookmarks
Save anything with one click and pick it back up on any device. Your reading list is the same list everywhere you are signed in.
-
Reading reminders
Short on time? Set a reminder on a bookmark and daily.dev brings it back when you said you would read it.
-
Spotlight search
Hit Cmd+K and find posts, squads, people, tags, or actions without leaving your tab. The fastest path to anything in the product.
-
AI search
Ask a question in plain language and get an answer synthesized from community-vetted posts, with the sources linked so you can check the work.
-
Reading history
Everything you have opened, in order. The "I read something about this last month" problem, solved.
- Plus
Bookmark folders
Organize saved posts into folders so a two-year reading list stays something you can navigate.
Every article is a conversation.
The best insight on a post is rarely in the post. It is in the replies, from developers who have actually shipped the thing. Squads are where that happens on purpose.
-
Squads
Communities built around the tools you love. Join one, share what you are building, and get answers from people using the same stack.
-
Discussions
Every post opens with its discussion attached. Comment, reply, and upvote without ever leaving the reader.
-
Upvotes and downvotes
Community ranking is what separates the useful posts from the SEO filler. Your votes also teach your own feed what you value.
-
Create and share posts
Publish a link, a question, or a full write-up into a squad. Your own posts are ranked by the same signals as everything else.
-
Follow developers
Follow the people whose taste you trust and see what they surface. Reading is a social act, and this is the part that makes it one.
- Plus
Members-only Squad
An exclusive space for Plus members to connect, send feedback straight to the team, and get priority support.
Your new developer ID.
Everything you read builds a profile that is unmistakably yours. It is how the community gets to know you, and it is yours to take anywhere.
-
Reading streaks
daily.dev greets you on every new tab, so keeping a streak alive takes zero willpower. Freeze days exist for the weeks that get away from you.
-
Reputation
Earned from upvotes on what you post and write, not from how loudly you post. It is the closest thing the feed has to a trust signal.
-
Public profile
A page with your streak, your reputation, the tags you read most, and what you have written. Link it from anywhere.
-
DevCard
A shareable card generated from your real reading activity. Drop it in a GitHub README and it updates itself.
-
Notifications
Replies, upvotes, squad activity, and streak nudges, on whichever surfaces you want them and none of the ones you do not.
Save it now, read it anywhere.
One account, every surface. Bookmark on the train, finish at your desk. Reading list, squads, and streak follow you rather than the other way round.
-
Browser extension
Chrome and Edge. This is the one most people start with, because it puts the feed where a blank page used to be.
-
iOS and Android apps
Native apps for the reading you do away from a desk, with push for the posts you asked to hear about.
-
Web app
The full product at daily.dev, nothing to install. Useful on a locked-down work machine.
-
Cross-device sync
Bookmarks, history, squad memberships, follows, and streak are account-level. Sign in anywhere and it is all already there.
-
Dark and light themes
Both, plus a system-follow option, on every surface. Also a handful of layout densities for the feed itself.
Built to be read by machines too.
Coding agents have the same problem developers do, one cutoff worse: they do not know what shipped last week. Every one of these surfaces exists so an agent can find out without scraping HTML.
-
Markdown twins
Every marketing, blog, and post page answers on a .md URL and honours Accept: text/markdown, so an agent gets clean text instead of a parsed DOM.
-
llms.txt
A single index of every structured surface on the domain. Sending Accept: text/markdown to daily.dev returns it, so the domain root is a valid entry point on its own.
-
Agent Skills
Published from the open-source repository and discoverable at /.well-known/agent-skills/index.json. Load them into a coding agent to pull real-time developer content.
-
Claude Code plugin
The same skills packaged as a plugin, plus a statusline that rotates the day’s headlines while you work.
- Plus
Public API
A REST API built for agents: personalized and topical feeds, post and comment retrieval, keyword and semantic search, bookmarks, and custom feeds. Bearer-token auth.
Six habits of people who still use it a year later.
None of this is required. All of it is what the developers who get the most out of daily.dev were doing by the end of their second week.
-
01
Make it your new tab and then forget about it
The extension is the whole trick. Keeping up stops being a task you schedule and becomes something that happens in the gaps you already have.
-
02
Follow eight to twelve tags on day one
Fewer and the feed is thin; many more and it is noise again. Your stack, one or two things adjacent to it, and one thing you want to learn.
-
03
Downvote early, and mean it
The ranking learns fastest from what you reject. Two weeks of honest downvotes buys you a year of a feed that does not waste your time.
-
04
Bookmark with a reminder, not with hope
A saved post with no reminder is a post you will not read. Attach a time to it and the reading list stops being a graveyard.
-
05
Join two squads, not ten
One for the tool you use every day, one for the thing you are learning. Depth in two beats silence in ten.
-
06
Read the replies before the article
On a post with an active discussion, the comments will tell you within thirty seconds whether the article is worth your next five minutes.
Almost all of this is free.
No trial, no credit card, no seat count. The features marked Plus are the optional upgrade for people who want to go further, and paying for it is what keeps the rest free for everyone else.
