I’m not very good at promotion or presentation — honestly, I’m below average. So if I could see an example of how you do it, it would be incredibly helpful for me.

I live in Asia and only know local platforms, but since the user base is quite limited here, I'm looking for platforms where I can post in English and reach a broader audience.
By the way, are you also using blogging or any other channels for traffic?

You’re absolutely right — I need to shift from treating this as a hobby to treating it as real work. But I’m still a beginner. If you don’t mind, could you share some of the things you did to gather early user feedback?
I’m so happy and truly grateful to everyone on HN. Thank you
I can’t help but wonder if the folks at JetBrains are starting to feel a bit of pressure from tools like Cursor or Windsurf
To be honest, I didn’t realize that model selection would be such an important point for users. I believed that choosing a high-quality model with strong reasoning capabilities was part of the service’s value proposition.
But lately, more users — including yourself — have been asking for support for other models like Claude Sonnet or LLaMA.
I’m now seriously considering adding an adapter feature. Thank you for your feedback — I really appreciate it.
2. from now, i only allow to use gpt-4o, because the requests involve relatively long context windows, which require high-quality reasoning. Only recent high-performance models like GPT-4o or Claude Sonnet are capable of reducing the manual workload for this kind of task.

but still, if user want to use other models , i can make adapter features for various models
That said, what I wanted to highlight in the example was a contrast — tools like Cursor and other general-purpose models often fail to even generate simple tests correctly, or can't produce tests that pass. So the goal was to show the difference in reliability.

Actually, I'm currently thinking about creating a small community for sharing pattern definitions.
