How is it decided which apps get featured?

How is it decided which apps get featured?

Our current approach is to try to choose apps that stand out as being high quality and well-maintained. We will continue to feature some apps on the website based on this criteria, but we are also working to provide more objective, data-driven reports. The new http://electron.atom.io/userland/ pages do just that: They surface interesting apps, packages, and users based on criteria like fork counts, contributor counts, download counts, number of dependent packages, etc.

Thanks for the answer @zeke. I take it that means a close-source app will have much less chance of being included?

a close-source app will have much less chance of being included?

I wouldn't say so. We have not discriminated on that basis. Slack is a great example of that.

Do you have some app(s) in mind?

I added Insomnia (I'm the dev) to the apps page a while ago, and have seen other apps that were added after get featured, so I was curious. Obviously I would love for it to be featured, but I also respect whatever selection processes are in place. Thanks again.

@zeke Could you consider featuring Freeter on the website - developers love it.
