I like it! It certainly isn't the most innovative design, but I think it hits all the functional notes. Looks like it's much easier to RSVP, learn about an event, see who's attending, etc. etc. AND it's fast.
It's a huge bummer to read articles that enumerate problems, but provide no solutions.
Try out "gallery view" (next to the fullscreen button) — it's much better than the default "speaker view."
So so so cool. This is where the sketch plugin ecosystem really starts to shine.
When it comes to tools, choice is a luxury, not a curse. The belief that there is a best tool hurts us. Don't spend as much time evaluating new tools; invest in the tools you use.
I definitely think writing is an important skill for a designer to master.
But "Unicorn Skill?" Just typing that makes me a little sick to my stomach.
Learn how to write well, learn how to code, study design history and typography, and you will become a more well-rounded designer. No need for silver bullets.
Excited to try this out! However, I just updated Craft and it looks like Prototype is still "coming soon." Any ideas why that might be?
The symbol duplication bug was killing me.

Interesting dive into the rebrand! The title overstates the facts a bit, though — revenue increase was from $20 to $280 MRR. I know "How a rebrand increase our MRR by $260" isn't quite as exciting, but I was pretty disappointed by that fact when I got there.
