DEV·TV's second real ad is live, and the next one could be yours 📺

A few days ago, DEV·TV ran its first real ad. Until then, every commercial break was a joke: Off-By-One Pizza 🍕, Rollback Airlines ✈️, node_modules Self Storage 📦. Then leantext took the first real slot. Today there's a second one. 🎉 🎨 Meet living-canvas living-canvas is a Claude skill that turns any repo, doc or idea into an animated README banner. Point it at a GitHub URL and it reads the project, finds the one idea at its heart, and turns it into motion: one self-contained SVG, no JavaScript, usually under 10 KB. ✨ It's built for the top of a README, where a stranger decides in two seconds whether to keep reading. Instead of a generic gradient, the banner tells the project's actual story, left to right: the problem, what the project does, and the result. To try it in Claude Code: git clone https://github.com/shouvik12/living-canvas ~/.claude/skills/living-canvas Then ask for /living-canvas https://github.com/you/your-repo. 🚀 📣 Two ads from the maker. The rest are yours. Every TV network runs promos for its own shows, and DEV·TV has now run two. That's enough of me. 😄 The next ad slots are open to the community, for free. 🙌 If you've built a developer tool, a library, an app or a side project, it can run in DEV·TV's commercial breaks just like leantext and living-canvas do: a full-screen ad card with your name, a one-line pitch, your colors and a button that links straight to your project. No fake disclaimer, because it's a real ad. To get one: 🖱️ Open DEV·TV and hit Submit your project, or ✉️ Email devtv.developers@gmail.com with your project name, a one-line pitch and a link. I screen every submission myself, the same way I do for the Spotlight channel. 🔦 🔗 The links 📺 DEV·TV, a retro TV for the developer internet: shouvik12.github.io/devtv · source 📄 leantext, lean Markdown for your coding agent, up to 99% fewer tokens: github.com/shouvik12/leantext 🎨 living-canvas, animated README banners from any repo: github.com/shouvik12/living-canvas Leave DEV·TV running on a second monitor. 🖥️ Sooner or later, a break comes up, and maybe your project is the one on screen. 👀
