The site that I use the most is libhunt.com. They have a decent interface and do a lot of analysis to determine the state of the library or tool.
You might be able to compete with libhunt.com if you simplify the interface, and provide both library/tool and SaaS grades.
I'm mostly concerned about three things when picking a library/tool or SaaS product. Is it popular in the community? Are there plenty of resources and documentation? Is it still alive and kicking?
Maybe you could create some type of DevTools (r) number that is essentially a rotten-tomatoes-like score that grades these products on those three key areas?
I love the idea of a Rotten Tomato approach. Originally, I was just going to have the tools that I've used personally and grade them personally. But I realized how difficult that would be to scale. It could help me to expand my territory in development by adding more skills (example: diving into Ruby, Java or Go and writing articles about tools in in those languages).
