If I’m not mistaken, there used to be a subcategory of Community named Showcase where projects could be shared - I haven’t been back to the forum for awhile - seems this is gone? Also, projects could be shared on JuliaHub in the past - now it seems that it’s a modeling platform.  
I don’t have anything amazing to share, just beginner projects - is this still encouraged - or maybe GitHub is the best place to do this?

The closest thing we have right now is probably [Package Announcements - Julia Programming Language](https://discourse.julialang.org/c/package-announcements/60)

There is #Package Announcements for… package announcements 🙂

Otherwise, you can just use #Community. A recent topic posted in #Community :

> My game library: Nexa I am currently creating a simple game library for the Julia programing language. It is called Nexa and at the moment I have simple key presses, image loading, and a simple game loop. It is not much right now but I only started working on it 2 days ago. My goal: My goal for this project is to make a simple library to make game easily in Julia. Something like raylib, its not too bloated but still very easy to use. Why am I making this? Well one the julia game dev ecosystem …

You probably should not post the code directly here, unless it’s a small snippet. People often use github for their projects (or an alternative such as bitbucket, gitlab, codeberg, …) and post a link here.

Regarding the question whether beginner projects are encouraged to be share here, I don’t know. People usually ask for help when something doesn’t work (which frequently happens in beginner projects), or they share things that others might find interesting (which beginner projects rarely are).

That would be my simple .wav generating program - haha. But I’d submit that beginner projects are VERY interesting to beginner programmers. Thanks - I’ll use DEV and GitHub.

I would say it isn’t explicitly discouraged, so it is implicitly encouraged !? Right?

I definitely want to see people sharing projects. There’s just been a push to have fewer subcategories to make moderation more manageable. I would agree with posting them in Community.
