Some of the touches on Stackbit are so much more clean and beautiful than anything we produce here at DEV πŸ˜„

I hope soon enough we'll smooth out the details of our experience in the little ways like this. (If anybody knows a great designer DM me πŸ˜‰)

But this also speaks to our ongoing interest in having underlying core mechanics that enable the correct behavior that our place in the ecosystem deserves... rather than focusing too heavily on the beautiful outer crust.

Compatibility with markdown and static site generators, a programmable API, ample tooling for data export, underlying follow mechanics and feed control that help folks control their experience... I'm proud that we find a way to prioritize the important, less visible stuff. I think it's paying off a lot lately.
