Dribbble is a design-shot community. A launch works when the product is the picture: a new editor, a plugin, a gorgeous dashboard. A paragraph on a beige card is not a shot.
The organic move is a series of real shots in the weeks around launch, with a quiet link in the description.

## Best for
- Design tools and visually obvious products
- Recruiting designers
- A visual trail alongside Designer News

## Skip if
- CLI tools and APIs
- Text-only launch announcements
- Buying Pro just to drop a URL

## FAQ
### Is Dribbble a launch platform?
It is a design community. Launches work only as shots, not as listings.

### Do I need Pro?
Not to post a launch shot. Pro is extra features, not a hunt rank.
