DISCOVERCreate a graphic design community app
Graphic designer community app: weekly challenges, a members' gallery and premium resources
A brief every Monday, the best entries published on Friday, and tutorials reserved for those who subscribe: your design community, gathered in one app.
Your graphic design community's app, on phones and on the web, made without writing code: weekly challenges announced by notification, entries sent through a form, a public members' gallery, case studies and cheat sheets for subscribers.
Free 30-day trial - No credit card required
The weekly challenge, every Monday
A brief goes live, a notification goes out, and the community gets to work
Every Monday, publish the brief: a poster for an imaginary festival, a three-color logo, a letterform to reinterpret. The automatic notification goes out with the article. Participants send their work through a form with a photo field, before Sunday night as the brief says, and you choose which pieces make it into the gallery.
A members' gallery, curated by you
The week's strongest pieces, captioned with their author's name
Entries land in your back office; you pick the best and publish them in a photo gallery, each image with its author's handle and portfolio address. The gallery stays public: it is the community's shop window, the one that makes people want to take on the next challenge and subscribe for the rest.
One challenge from start to finish: your week, in practice
Four moves, from brief to critique.
Monday, the brief
A public article with the subject, the constraints and the deadline; automatic push announces it.All week, the entries
The form collects each participant's image, handle and portfolio link.Friday, the selection
You publish the pieces you picked in the week's gallery.Sunday, the critique
A reserved article takes three entries apart: hierarchy, color, type choices.
Your premium resources, as reserved articles
Tutorials, case studies, cheat sheets: the subscription opens everything
Write your resources as articles: building a grid step by step, a teardown of a visual identity, a commented selection of palettes. The preview stays readable up to the paragraph you set, and the rest is for subscribers. A PDF attached to a reserved article, such as a printable grid, is hidden from non-subscribers.
What else your members find
Video demos
A logo built in time-lapse, a retouch with commentary, in a reserved Videos section.
Comments under articles
Members discuss a critique; you moderate before or after publishing.
The challenge archive
Every past brief, to keep practicing between seasons.
Bookmarks
A member keeps the grid tutorial within reach.
Search
Find a resource on kerning or logotypes in a few keystrokes.
The web version
Your public pages also open in the browser, on the screen where your members work.
AI working for the community
Three uses, and their cost.
To create
A random brief generator
One sentence is enough for the AI Extension Builder: “a button that draws a random subject, format and color constraint”. The section appears in the app, in the community's colors.
Free
To answer
A Chatbot fed on your tutorials
“Which typeface for a restaurant logo?” Its answers come from your published tutorials, written in the asker's language; non-subscribers only receive what open articles contain.
29€/month
To publish
The week's gallery put online from Claude
With the MCP server, Claude or ChatGPT takes your instructions: “publish the five selected pieces and announce the gallery”, you approve, it's live.
Included
The collective of freelance designers
A challenge each week to stay sharp between client jobs, and case studies reserved for members.
The designer who teaches on social media
Her carousels stay public; her in-depth resources and critiques move into the app, by subscription.
The instructor who mostly teaches on video
If your courses are long videos first and foremost, the creative skills video app is a better fit.

Extension Store
On the extensions side, a design community relies on Memberships, Articles and Videos, the form that receives entries, push, the Chatbot, the AI Extension Builder and bookmarks.
The price of a design community app
Premium puts the app on the stores; charging for the premium resources means adding Memberships, which Pro brings from day one. Forms, galleries, notifications and hosting cost nothing more.
| Premium · native apps and web version | 55€ /month, billed yearly |
| Memberships, added to Premium | 49€ /month |
| Pro · Memberships provided | 105€ /month, billed yearly |
GoodBarber takes nothing from your subscriptions; Apple and Google keep their share, 15% for most sellers. Developer accounts are billed by the stores.
Graphic designer community app: FAQ
Where do my members discuss the entries?
Under articles, through comments. Chat and Community, on the other hand, don't work with Memberships: an app chooses between selling by subscription and group spaces.
Can I reserve the members' gallery for subscribers?
No, a photo gallery section can't be reserved. Leave it public, it's your best shop window; to reserve visuals, place them in the reserved paragraphs of an article.
Do participants publish their work themselves?
No: they send it through the form, and you publish. Nothing enters the gallery unless you choose it.
Can I share files to download?
A PDF attached to an article, yes, and it stays hidden from non-subscribers if the article is reserved. For heavy source files, put a link to your storage space in the reserved article.
How many resources do I need before opening subscriptions?
At least ten reserved pieces of content. Keep a few resources open too: they're what a visitor reads before subscribing.
Which plan for a designers' app?
Pro already contains subscription sales; with Premium, add Memberships. To get paid, the web version must run on a domain you own.
GoodBarber gives your design community its own app: challenges, a gallery and premium resources, with no GoodBarber commission
The week's brief announced by push, entries through a form, a public members' gallery, articles and PDFs reserved for subscribers, comments, Chatbot and MCP server.
