The journal

Roadmap & release notes, in the open.

The customer-visible counterpart of GitHub commits -every shipped feature gets a line within 24 hours. No dates that aren't committable; we use Now / Next / Later instead.

How this page is kept honest.

Within 24 hours

Every shipped feature gets a changelog line within twenty-four hours of going live.

Customer-facing language

Written for the people who use the product, not the engineers who built it. No commit-message jargon.

Workflow-breaking only

Bugs noteworthy enough to break a workflow get listed. Trivial fixes don't clutter the page.
