We're working on a new look and a whole new Forge. We're back! Much more to come, new era awaits. 🔥

One example Forge Canvas perf spike: custom PixiJS engine spawns 10k objects in 97ms, holds ~58fps median on a camera tour (overview → pan → zoom), agent API creates/moves 50 in <1ms. p5 dips to 29fps

How about Miro flows style artefact generation with connected objects as context providers, in this example generating a Table based on the connected document

Now we're getting to the juicy stuff - how about a Miro-esque rich text editor docs on the canvas, complete with AI Agent generation?

Self-serve infra without a platform team is often self-serve until you need something that is not in the happy path. Hot take, backed by a longer post. getforge.com/blog/self-serve…

Faster tests do not mean better judgment. Demand testing in the AI era: what is easier, and what is still on you as a founder. getforge.com/blog/demand-tes…

AI can speed up discovery work. It does not remove the need for sharp questions and honest disconfirming evidence. Short post on what is different now. getforge.com/blog/customer-d…

Here's a simple 7 to 14 day validation sprint you can use to find signal fast, and cut through theory and debate to real behaviour. getforge.com/blog/forge-vali…

Extension points are a product, not a config flag. We wrote about where they belong in the lifecycle, with examples from big platforms. getforge.com/blog/anatomy-of…

Delegating a11y to every plugin author is how you get uneven UX and real compliance risk. Platform ownership is not optional. getforge.com/blog/a11y-in-e1…

Dev and staging have a line item. The hidden tax is coordination, wait time, and "works on my machine" tax. We wrote the fuller picture. getforge.com/blog/the-real-c…

The highest-leverage consultants don't sell hours. They sell systems that work without them. That's the shift from declining demand to powerful leverage. getforge.com/blog/sell-syste… #Founders #Startups #ProductisedServices

Jamstack didn't win (and as a result, become obsolete as a term) because of fast pages. It became the norm by addressing architectural friction that impacted teams in so many ways. getforge.com/blog/jamstack-w… #webdev #composableWeb

Building a developer platform doesn't remove the bottleneck. It moves it. Most IDPs are just a new queue with better branding. getforge.com/blog/your-idp-i… #Founders

Clients don't want the PDF. They want to see what is happening and feel in control. Ship an interface, not a document. getforge.com/blog/from-deliv… #Startups

Your waitlist can feel like progress. It rarely is. People sign up because it’s easy. What matters is behaviour: who replies, who books time, who pays, who comes back. If you want signal, put something real in front of them. getforge.com/blog/why-your-w…

AI is changing how we build but most teams are still testing like it’s 2015. In the AI era, demand testing flips the model getforge.com/blog/demand-tes…

Just released a new kind of Forge Apps - snippet injection. Google Analytics. This is the first of many, we’ve got a long list of services we want to support and partnerships to build in the coming days and weeks.

Gave Forge onboarding a little upgrade. Complete key steps → get a badge. Subtle. Satisfying. Slightly addictive. Consider this your sneak peek before the community badges drop. 👀

👀 The new Forge features a brand new dashboard. Yes, it's a big glow up with lots of new features and clearer information about your projects. But we're not done here. Forge isn't just about site, app and plugin hosting. It's about helping you achieve your goals 🔥
