StackScope is a free public catalogue of indie launches. We find launches on Product Hunt, Hacker News and similar feeds, then crawl each site to detect its tech stack and score it for launch readiness: DNS, security headers, SEO basics. This page is what we saw on 20 April 2026; the live site may have changed since.

Poor's Man Shaders is largely in shape, with a thorough launch checklist, fast page loads, and clean crawl signals. Visible gaps: missing several security headers, incomplete legal pages, and incomplete email security.

Launched on Hacker News on April 20, 2026. The site is hosted on GitHub Pages and served through Cloudflare. The crawl picked up 10 technologies on this site, covering CDN, DNS providers, business email, and email forwarding. The stack includes Jekyll, Cloudflare, and Cloudflare DNS.

For context, it's one of only 48 launches we've crawled running Jekyll.
