Looking for a WordPress plugin to host user projects?

Hi all,

I’m looking to set up a WordPress site where users can create and host projects. Think of it like GitHub but more focused on the frontend. Users should be able to make accounts, create projects with descriptions, release versions, etc., but without needing access to a dev portal. Any suggestions on plugins that could make this work?

Have you considered self-hosting a git platform?

I’m actually not looking for git hosting. GitHub was just an example.

I’m thinking of something more like CurseForge or Nexus Mods, where users can share and update their own projects.

Got it. When you say “project,” there are lots of ways to interpret that, depending on the features. For example:

  • A software project
  • A garden journal
  • A recipe collection

Are you aiming for something where people can create, maintain, and update a portfolio of software projects?

@Aspen
Yes, exactly. The focus is on software projects.
