Nomoyu Daily for Indie Developers
Let’s build together 🎉
Nomoyu Daily for Indie Developers (https://www.nomoyu.com) shares valuable things I come across every day. It is mainly for indie developers, featuring outstanding software and games made by other developers, along with news, documents, and insights useful to indie builders. The current publishing channels are:

Introduction
As an indie developer, I often run into a few questions:
- How do I discover real user needs?
- How do I understand existing products on the market and differentiate my own?
- How do I anticipate the problems that may appear during development, launch, and operations, and solve them better?
To answer these questions, I read a large amount of information every day. In that process, I often come across interesting products, valuable insights, and useful documents. Since other indie developers may face the same problems, Nomoyu Daily for Indie Developers was born.
I chose daily publishing instead of weekly publishing because it provides information that is both more comprehensive and more time-sensitive. A weekly schedule would force me to filter a large amount of information more aggressively, which adds more subjectivity, risks missing important updates, and weakens timeliness. For indie developers who iterate quickly, timely access to information matters a lot, because different developers judge value differently, and their development process and product direction can shift fast. Learning about new developments earlier can prevent avoidable mistakes. That is why I decided to publish daily: to reduce the impact of my own subjective filtering and better meet indie developers’ need for information.
This project started on 2025-05-18 and is still in its early exploratory stage. If you have any suggestions or feedback, feel free to reach out. Later on, I will also share the structured data behind this daily project, and you are welcome to use it.
The information currently shared mainly falls into the following categories:
- 🖥️ Software: developer tools, productivity apps, open-source projects, and more
- 🎮 Games: indie games, game development frameworks, design tools, and more
- 🌐 Websites: useful online tools, resource sites, community platforms, and more
- 📚 Resources: tutorials, documentation, learning materials, and more
- ✨ Insights: indie development experience, reflections, and ideas
Part of the code for this daily project comes from Howie’s Weekly.
