A MANIFESTO, IN FOUR PARTS

We build
slowly,
on purpose.

 

Four things we believe, plainly. No pictures, because none of them needed one.

ON SPEED

Slow is a feature.

We hold a release until we're bored of demoing it. Boredom is the only signal we trust.

ON SCOPE

We ship less,
and ship it well.

Most of what we're asked to build, we don't. The list of things we said no to is longer than the product.

ON SUPPORT

Support is not a department.

The person who wrote the code answers the ticket. It's slower some weeks. It's never wrong for long.

ON MISTAKES

We say when
we're wrong.

Our changelog has an apology in it about once a quarter. We'd rather that than a quiet fix.

Read the rest,
or just start.

The full manifesto is twelve points. The product is the other way to find out if we mean them.
