How We Got LLMs to Recommend Our Open Source Library (Without Paying or Plug-ins)

Official Schedule Context

Over the past year, we’ve seen a new distribution channel emerge: AI assistants. Instead of SEO,

ads, or integrations, developers are discovering tools through models like Claude. In this talk,

I’ll break down how we got our open source library recommended organically by LLMs in under a year,

without plugins, paid placements, or partnerships. We’ll cover what actually influences model

outputs today, how developer-first products behave differently in this channel, and the practical

steps we took to make our project show up when it matters. This is not theory. It’s a real case

study of how distribution is changing, and how you can design your product and content to be picked

up by AI systems directly.
