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 11 August 2026; the live site may have changed since.

Tradecraft.academy is largely in shape, with complete legal pages, a thorough launch checklist, and clean crawl signals. Visible gaps: missing several security headers and incomplete email security.

Launched on Hacker News on August 11, 2026. The site is hosted on Vercel, with a domain registered 2 weeks before launch. The crawl picked up 10 technologies on this site, covering analytics, CSS frameworks, DNS providers, and business email. The stack includes Next.js, React, and Tailwind CSS.

For context, it's on one of the most common stacks we track, shared by 12,865 launches.
