I'm 12. I built a social network for developers. Adults are NOT allowed. (Yes, you. Close the tab.)

A 12-year-old has created a social network called DOJO FEED, which is a developer-focused platform specifically designed for users aged 5 to 18. Adults are not allowed on the site, as it is tailored to young developers seeking a more welcoming and supportive environment for their coding journey. The platform was inspired by the creator's own experiences with building an AI coding mentor, KODA, which gained significant attention on Dev.to.
DOJO FEED emphasizes simplicity, with a focus on a feed, posts with optional code snippets, likes, and the ability to delete posts. The site is hosted on one HTML file, Supabase for authentication and database management, and Netlify for hosting. The creator hopes to inspire other young developers by providing a space where their first coding projects can be celebrated just as much as major releases.
