A new home, the same habit
Product7's site has a new look — but the rhythm underneath it is still the same. A short note on what to expect here.
We rebuilt the Product7 site from scratch this spring. If you are returning from the old WordPress blog, welcome back — and if you are new here, welcome.
A few things stayed the same:
- We still ship weekly. That was the habit when we started and it is the habit today. Every Friday, something real moves.
- We still believe the good work happens in collaboration. No account-manager telephone game, no handoffs to a team you have not met. The people thinking about your problem are the people writing the code.
- We still like writing things down. The notes on this blog are meant to be useful — specific, technical when they need to be, and honest about what did not work.
A few things changed:
- The site is now static, which means it is faster and cheaper to run. The old blog had features we never used; this one is stripped to what matters.
- Posts live in Markdown in a git repository. Small thing, big quality-of-life upgrade.
- We did not migrate the old posts. The ones worth keeping will get rewritten as they become relevant again.
If you are building something we might be able to help with, send us a note. A paragraph is enough to get started.
