Social networking for developers, powered by GitHub. Connect through real code collaboration, join communities around your favorite technologies, and build professional relationships that matter.
I built NextTurn because I was frustrated with how disconnected the developer community felt despite all our "networking" platforms. LinkedIn feels corporate and fake, Twitter/X is just noise, and GitHub is amazing for code but terrible for actually connecting with people.
The problem: Developers network through buzzwords and job titles instead of actual work and shared interests.
What makes NextTurn different:
🔗 GitHub-first networking - Your repositories and contributions become your social profile, not just a resume line 👥 Communities built around code - Join groups based on the technologies you actually use, not just follow 🤝 Real collaboration over small talk - Connect through live coding sessions and project work, not just "How's the weather?" 📈 Professional growth through practice - Learn by doing with others, not just consuming content
What's unique:
Your GitHub activity automatically enriches your profile and suggests relevant connections
Communities are organized around actual tech stacks and frameworks
Live coding sessions with screen sharing (coming soon!)
Professional relationships built through real collaboration, not just connections
Most "developer social networks" are just LinkedIn with a dark theme. NextTurn is built around how developers actually work and learn - through code, collaboration, and shared technical interests.
Ready to turn your development workflow into a social experience? Let's build something amazing together! 🚀
Congrats on the launch. Just found a quick little bug hiding in the menu button of the website. Please check, When you scroll and then click on the menu button, the whole thing is transparent. Not detectable on top of the page, happens when the nav bar becomes transparent and so does the menu bar.
yes man always needed something like this because developers really are disconnected and have no way to actually collaborate or the collaboration feels so out of touch. Now finally developers can connect to each other based on interests and their shared emotions for tech instead of building the profile for corporate.
finally a place where my actual GitHub projects are front and center—so much better than explaining my work through awkward job titles! Wondering if the live coding sessions will support pair programming? This is just so well done.
