Why Use the WVW Apps.json Generator?
World Vibe Web (wvw.dev) is a distributed app store that aggregates vibe-coded projects from GitHub. To get your apps listed, you need to create an apps.json file following a specific schema — but writing JSON by hand is error-prone and tedious.
This generator gives you a visual form builder that produces valid, schema-compliant apps.json files instantly. Fill in your store info, add your apps one by one, and the tool handles formatting, validation, and category mapping automatically. It supports all 27 WVW-recognized categories, auto-generates kebab-case IDs, fetches repo details from the GitHub API, and saves your progress automatically.
Whether you're listing a single CLI tool or an entire portfolio of projects, this tool ensures your apps.json is correct before you submit your PR to wvw.dev. Read our complete guide on creating apps.json for wvw.dev for step-by-step instructions and tips.
The WVW Apps.json Generator creates valid, schema-compliant apps.json files for the World Vibe Web distributed app store. WVW aggregates vibe-coded projects from independent developers into a unified catalog, and an apps.json file is the entry point for getting your projects listed. This tool replaces manual JSON editing with a visual form builder that handles formatting, validation, and category mapping automatically.
The generator supports all 27 WVW-recognized categories, auto-generates kebab-case app IDs, fetches repository details from the GitHub API, and saves your progress automatically to browser local storage. The built-in validator catches missing fields, invalid URLs, and unrecognized categories before you export, preventing rejected pull requests and build failures.
After generating your apps.json, commit it to a public GitHub repo and submit a pull request to wvw.dev. Use the WVW Store Checker to verify your apps are synced after the next build cycle. For validating JSON structure, pair this tool with the JSON Schema Validator.
How It Compares
Without this tool, creating an apps.json for WVW requires reading the schema documentation, manually writing JSON with correct field names and types, validating categories against the allowed list, and testing the file for syntax errors. This generator automates every step: form fields map directly to schema properties, categories are pre-filtered to WVW's 27 recognized options, and real-time validation catches errors as you type.
The tool was officially featured in WVW's DISTRIBUTE.md documentation as the recommended way to create apps.json files, making it the de facto standard for WVW submissions. No other online tool specifically targets the WVW schema.
