Can you help me?

This thread from asked where to list mobile apps written in Visual C++. Replies from and others pointed to forums and directories. To add a practical, up-to-date layer: pick one public host for source and builds and one or two discovery channels that match the target OS (Android vs Windows/WinCE vs iOS). Exact choice changes the workflow, so treat hosting and discovery as separate steps.

Recommended host: use a public code host such as GitHub. A repo with README, license, screenshots and a CI-fed release pipeline lets the project publish signed installers or APKs as GitHub Releases, provides issue tracking, and gives a single canonical URL to list elsewhere. For Windows binaries, a code-signing certificate and checksums reduce SmartScreen/AV friction.

Platform distribution examples: Android binaries are commonly distributed via Google Play for reach and via F‑Droid for free/open-source apps (F‑Droid requires source and reproducible builds). Indie or cross-platform binary downloads (APK, EXE, ZIP) work well on itch.io. Modern Windows Store apps use the Microsoft developer portal (Microsoft Store Dev). Legacy Windows Mobile/WinCE targets usually need niche community forums plus a public repo for downloads.

Promotion and basics (as hinted): a short announcement or article helps discoverability; Product Hunt (Product Hunt) can drive early attention. Quick publish checklist:

  • one-line description, screenshots, short demo
  • release artifact(s) with license, changelog and checksums
  • code signing for Windows; APK signing for Android
  • CI to automate builds and create tagged Releases

Combining a public repo with one curated discovery channel gives the best free visibility while keeping maintenance and support manageable.

What do your applications do? Are they Windows apps? Tools? Calculators? Calendars? etc.? In what language are they written?

A search for freeware would probably turn up many sites for posting your applications. Other, language-specific, sites are also around.

Mobile applications, written in Visual C++

You could probably start here, with DaniWeb. At the top of each language forum is a tab for "Code Snippets". For example, the C++ forum has a tab within which you could create a thread posting your C++ code.

There are also two websites that come to mind quickly:

The Code Project
http://www.codeproject.com/

Code Cogs
http://www.codecogs.com/

These two sites accept code submissions in a variety of languages for many applications.

Also, there are the freeware sites (I mentioned already), and many scripts sites. Check out the list below. Many of these sites call themselves scripts sites, but they also accept a whole range of code submissions.

Advance Scripts http://www.advancescripts.com/
All the Scripts http://www.allthescripts.com/
Big Resource http://www.bigresource.com/
Big Webmaster http://www.bigwebmaster.com/
Code Junction http://www.codejunction.com/
Computer Scripts
Developer Tutorials http://www.developertutorials.com/
Devscripts http://www.devscripts.com/
Dream.In.Code
Fatscripts.com http://www.fatscripts.com/
Firescripts Scripts Directory http://www.firescripts.com/
HotScripts.com http://www.hotscripts.com/
iScripts http://www.iscripts.com/
Javascript Source http://javascript.internet.com/
Matrix28
NeedScripts http://www.needscripts.com/
The New World
Planet Source Code
Programmers Heaven
Scriptdex http://www.scriptdex.com/
Scripts.com http://www.scripts.com/
ScriptsBank http://www.scriptsbank.com/

ScriptGateway
Script Heaven

Scriptsearch
ScriptWorm
Search-Scripts http://www.search-scripts.com/
Site Beater
SiteScripts
Web Scripts http://www.webscriptsdirectory.com/

Finally, I suppose you could post your programs as projects on sites like sourceforge, fresh meat, Google Code Project, etc. A search for open source software or open source projects should turn up many more.

Also there are many e-zines and online publications on the internet where you can publish software related articles.

One of the best ways to promote a software is to add it to software directories like download.com.

Member Avatar for vishalkhialani

you can also create a pad file and submit to 100's of software directories automatically.
