Wow, that is wonderful to hear! :) Definitely a huge thanks to the HN community, which was so supportive when we first launched (and ever since)!

Wix is targeted directly at small businesses who create their own web presence by using a template and filling in some details (text, images, etc). Webflow is a much more professional tool targeted at web designers, freelancers, and agencie

Thank you, that truly means a lot! At first (in late 2012), we tried every single frontend framework available - including Backbone, Angular, Spine, and SproutCore (which ended up becoming Ember) - but they were all too slow for what we wer

A little over 3 years ago, my brother and I posted a Show HN about Webflow ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5407499 ), which was just a proof-of-concept / experiment. At the time, we had been working on Webflow day

I think the majority of this (counter)claim is that Jeremy provided critical IP to the company as consideration for (promised) equity. That makes the issue more complicated, unless Cruise can prove that they threw out 100% of the intellectu

We've been advocating moving our visual implementation (or something similar) to dev tools in both FF and Chrome. Here are some before/after examples to show you how a more abstract input method can really speed up development: h

Hey Kev, we actually worked with Tom Park (the creator of Flexbox Froggy) to apply the same exact concept to a more visual paradigm - so they're meant to serve the same purpose, but the visual version is meant to be more approachable t

One of the creators here. 94% of browsers now support [1] the CSS Flexible Box Layout Module Level 1 (Flexbox for short), yet only 3% of all sites use this new technology [2]. We decided to create a visual UI around flexbox to mimic the Ill

Given the conversation in yesterday's thread [1], I think a known (and personally identified) non-malicious person defensively reserving these packages is less dangerous than some unknown entity taking over these packages later. I pers

by callmevlad 11y ago
Yes, as far as I've heard, this was done defensively to prevent malicious actors from claiming these packages. Also, relevant conversation here in yesterday's thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11340510

Looks like the npm team will not be removing the ability to unpublish packages - see reply by core committer "othiym23" on https://github.com/npm/npm/pull/12017

Yes, but I can publish an evil left-pad@0.0.10, and if you're not shrinkwrapping or any sub-dependency has left-pad: "^0.0.3", it will pull in the evil 0.0.10 version. EDIT: I stand corrected. See below, looks that's not

The fact that this is possible with NPM seems really dangerous. The author unpublished (erm, "liberated") over 250 NPM modules, making those global names (e.g. "map", "alert", "iframe", "subscrip

Good morning HN! My brother Sergie and I posted on Show HN [1] exactly 1000 days ago with our first prototype of a CSS authoring tool, and ever since then we've wanted to create a tool to make complex 3D interactions possible without s

The article makes it very clear that they are not yet profitable, and won't be for at least a year. Even if they're burning $100M a year, they've raised almost 5 times that amount - so they can sustain losses for a long time.

Dear HN, A bit over two years ago, this community helped my brother and I take little more than a dream and a barely-working prototype [1] and turn it into a fledgling product that we were able to launch that same summer. From Day 1, we wan

Hey @ipselon - I'd love to get in touch and chat about this. I can't find your email in your HN profile; any chance you can contact me via vlad [at] webflow [dot] com? Thanks!

It seems like using a tree-index based path, this serialization format would only work with purely static content. If you have a change to the underlying content (e.g. adding a new paragraph before a selection), there doesn't seem to b
