Nice subtle plug, @gkoberger. ;)

AddonList got a ton of love a while back. Very cool to see you simplify the onboarding and management of developer tools, @Tosswill. Are you working with providers (e.g. Mailgun) to do this or do you have a script that registers/logs in on the user's behalf?
Chris Tosswill
@gkoberger I love ReadMe, anything that encourages developers to better document services is a real win :)
Chris Tosswill
Founder of AddonList here, happy to answer anything!

@rrhoover we work with each provider to create the one-click install experience. This way it can be securely done via API instead of a scraper or something. We currently have 9 fully integrated addons and are launching more over the next few weeks.

@_jacksmith you can currently get ReadMe accounts through AddonList , I keep trying to get @gkoberger just to launch already. It works great, we use them for our partner docs.

@_jacksmith they're on the older, free version of readme, but you can get a basic idea: http://docs.addonlist.com/ (Big feature it's missing, other than looks, are the community stuff and the API browser)
Gregory Koberger
@Tosswill What's your favorite service you have integrated, and why is it ReadMe? ;)
Gregory Koberger
@rrhoover @tosswill haha I had to do *something*; AddonList has all the big name services everyone uses... and then mine :)

@_jacksmith hopefully soon; I have a few people using the beta and am ironing out some rough edges (BTW, just used Shyp a few days ago; absolutely loved it. Thanks!)

seems cool; "Get services like MongoLab with a single click. We provision the account and inject the API keys via our gem or NPM. Use these addons on any platform or hosting solution, including locally."
Jack Smith
@Tosswill got a link to your partner docs so we can see what it looks like in the wild?

@gkoberger when is readme.io launching? I wanted to post you guys to producthunt, but it doesn't really seem to be open for signups yet.
