Your original question was about why you haven't been able to get traction with devs. That's a marketing question.

is there any code for this yet?
Yes a ton
marketing tech to devs who have got cosy with being the gatekeepers so much they write lists of their own awesome mates is virtually impossible. even though their behaviour is clearly immature and narcissistic to anyone reading it from the outside.
It's ok to have friends
for anyone who is serious about tech the hubris filled ramblings of a bunch of jumped up web developers is quite comical. guys who are clearly exploiting the "trending" algorithm that is the default and what every user first sees, to brag about how l33t they are is tragic.
they don't care about the actual tech making it into anything like a late beta let alone release grade.
