How things get seen
Why is that ship above mine?
Nothing here is a mystery on purpose. What the ranking counts, what it deliberately doesn't, and the controls that change your view.
Backing
Not anonymous
What does the arrow actually do?
The one vote on Havor. You can back a build the day it's posted, long before it ships, and the builder is told by name.
Not a like — A like is free. A back is what the ranking is built out of.
Havor Score
Others only
How is this number worked out?
Backs and conversation from other builders, never your own. Views never count.
Not your place on the leaderboard — That's a rank, and it moves when other ships move.
Trending, Newest and Top
3 tabs
on the products page
Three ways to order the same catalogue.
- Trending
- Backs and replies, weighed against age — newer ships get a head start
- Newest
- The order things arrived
- Top
- The biggest — today, this week, this month, all time
All, Harbor, Yard
Yard ranks its own
on the products page
Can I hide the unfinished ones?
Yes — the switch narrows to shipped products or early builds. The Yard has its own order, new and recently active first, so early work isn't buried.
Your feed
Signed in
on the home page
Why is my home page different from someone else's?
It re-orders around you: builders you follow, categories you picked, and what you and your crew back. It never changes a ship's Score.
Not a filter — Your own ships and ones you've backed step aside here. All of it is on the products page.
Filters and search
They stack
on products and builders
Cut by category, stage, format, team size, tools, or when it landed. Every combination is a real URL, so a cut you like is a link you can send.
Built with
Tap any tool
Who else is building with this?
Tap a tool on any ship to see everything on Havor made with it. Usually a better filter than the category.

Where did that section go?
Featured, New to the harbor, Top builders, From the harbor and Help wanted each show up once there's enough to fill them. Nothing is being withheld.
The leaderboard
Ships and builders
The standings — a podium for the top three, a ledger for the rest. One tab ranks ships by Score, the other ranks builders by what their ships earned.
Milestones
Rare on purpose
Will I know if my ship takes off?
Rising fast, or a place in this week's top three. You're told by name, the ship wears a stamp for a week, and its share card carries it.
Not your place on Trending — That's a number that moves every hour. A milestone is a moment.
What trips people up
Limits on purpose, not rough edges.
You can't back your own ship
And your replies under it don't count toward its Score. Shutting that road is what makes the number worth reading.
A comment is worth more than a back
Several times more — and it's distinct people that count, so ten replies from one person is one voice.
