Thank you so much for your support over the years and for joining me on this journey 💚

Running a start-up is hard! Especially your first time. Especially when you're the solo founder, engineer, designer, marketer, etc.
Since 2022, Marathon has been the place to explore, log, and discuss TV.

Today, we're sharing an important update: Marathon will be winding down operations on March 31, 2025.

The excellent @marathontv.app has just pushed an update where you can add your Bluesky to your profile. And it’s excellent! If you watch lots of TV shows, you should probably check it out. 📺

Baselayer is the culmination of years spent building internal tools for products. We’ve seen fully custom apps, no-code apps, and database apps — and we’ve built something that beats all of them

THIS is exactly why the New Architecture is so exciting 😍 can’t wait to try this one out
Legend List 0.1 is ready to test! This is an early experiment to see how well it works in real apps so please post issues and/or PRs 🙏. It’s only ~600 lines so it should be easy to understand and tweak.
✨ 100% JS
✨ Fast
✨ Dynamic sizing
✨ Works in both new and old arch
