What we cover
(00:21): How should early-stage startups be thinking about community?
(06:09): Once the community has found momentum, what would the next focus be?
(12:27): In terms of tangibly measuring how well you're doing, what kind of things do you care about?
(18:39): Community can sometimes be put on the back burner, but at the same time you see so many of the most successful dev startups invested in community really early on. Do you see a pattern or do you have any advice for startups that are at this stage?
