How to Get Help with Sindre Sorhus's Apps

Updated

Use the Help section of sindresorhus.com. The site lists Help as one of its main navigation areas, alongside Apps, About, and Follow, and it is the intended route for people who need assistance with his apps. The About page is not the support channel—it describes the site and its maker, so questions about an app should go through Help instead.

What the Help section is for

Sindre Sorhus describes himself on the site as a "Full-Time Open-Sourcerer & App Maker," and the site is organized around two things he produces: Apps and Code. Help sits with those sections because it serves people already using the apps—installation questions, how an app behaves, or where to look when something isn't working as expected.

Help vs. About vs. Apps

Section What it's for When to use it
Help Support for his apps You're using an app and need assistance
Apps Finding and learning about his apps You want to see what he's made or pick an app
About Background on the site and its maker You want context on who he is
Follow Keeping up with updates You want to hear about new releases

If you land on the homepage and aren't sure where to go, start from the Help heading rather than scrolling for a contact link elsewhere—the navigation is deliberately short, and Help is the only support-oriented entry.

A practical way to get an answer faster

  1. Open sindresorhus.com and select Help from the main navigation.
  2. Identify the specific app you need help with—his catalog spans multiple apps, so naming the app narrows things down.
  3. Check whether your question is already covered before writing anything up; many common questions are answered in place.
  4. If you still need to reach out, describe the app, what you did, and what happened, so the problem can be reproduced.

What to expect: the site presents Help as a destination, but the page evidence available here doesn't spell out response times or individual support terms. Treat any expectation about turnaround as unconfirmed until you see it on the Help page itself.

Common sticking points

  • Looking for support on the About page. About explains the person and the site; it isn't a help desk. Use Help.
  • Confusing apps with code. The site separates Apps from Code. If your question is about using an app, Help is the right door; open-source code questions belong with the code itself.
  • Assuming a contact form exists. The navigation confirms a Help section exists, not what form it takes. Open the page and follow whatever route it offers rather than guessing at an email address.

The short version

Go to sindresorhus.com, choose Help, name the app, and describe the issue concretely. Skip About for support questions, and check the Help page for the actual contact method before assuming how to reach him.
