    This looks great and super approachable. WorkOS[0] seems to be tackling something similar but more enterprise focused. [0]: https://workos.com/

    Unrelated to the article itself, but the design of this page on mobile is a beautiful experience.

    Hey Spencer, congrats on going public! I’ve been a happy Amplitude customer at several companies now. If you were starting a company today, what would you do differently from how y…

    It's worth noting that their margins have improved significantly this year and will presumably continue to do so over the following years. For comparison, their loss in Q2 2021 was…

    I made https://paymewith.xyz to share my social payments faster. Got tired of the “do you have Venmo/Square Cash/Paypal” dance.

    Quick question regarding frontend integration. I see that you can embed a widget that requires an API key and the currently authenticated user's email. Does this mean that if I'm a…

    I hated PHP for the longest time (worked extensively with PHP5 and various homebrewed frameworks in the early 2010s), but I gotta admit, it's come a long way with PHP7+ and great f…

    OpenAPI is just the format for describing APIs for various use cases such as documentation, runtime validation, and yes, even code generation. Depending in the language you use, th…

    Surprised there is no mention of OpenAPI. A spec driven API development process solves most of the problems described without having to switch to schematized data serialization for…

    So impressed by Cloudflare’s rate of new and improved product launches.
