Scrolling through the list... I love the personality to this page with the visual design; don't see that too often these days.

Tempted to make a page (I suppose my hand-coded html homepage at https://www.kradeelav.com would fit, as well as various zine and illustration projects).

My only big question is a lack of understanding 'which makers' are acceptable here. Those who play with code? those who play with paper? those who play with a combination of both and with the infinity other mediums that exist?

Thanks and really good question, I deliberately let it a bit vague at the moment. I'm a tech guy obviously, and it seems that most of those who identify themselves as makers are coming from the tech (building digital / tech products). Or it's because they are very influential on the social media.

Anyway, you can see make.rs similar to linkedin but focused on what you made instead of who you worked for. So anyone can list their creations. If the entries are really diverse I will probably add a categorisation system, because I also want to help makers exchange around their interests, to learn & grow their skills.

Hope it makes sense.
