How does @rocicorp keep Zero fast? 🐰 Bencher: bencher.dev/perf/zero

The most annoying problem for Zero's launch was what bug tracker to use. GitHub is way too slow, and Linear doesn't have public bugs or permissions – both required for OSS projects. This was driving me nuts, until I realized the only possible solution… ⏩ (link in reply)

Dev is hired

General purpose sync for the whole web.

Beyond excited to share that Matt Wonlaw (aka @tantaman) has joined @rocicorp as our seventh partner. Matt is well-known in the local-first community for his work on vlcn.io and related projects, and I'm delighted he has chosen to join forces with us. We've all been working together now for several months, and I cannot wait to share the results. Let's just say that they will be _materializing_ very soon.

We've added a new partner to @rocicorp! I've known Darick Tong for about fifteen years – he was one of the principal engineers behind the Gmail backend, and widely respected at Google. More importantly he's the person behind the 💩 emoji. fastcompany.com/3037803/the-…

I am extremely delighted to share that @alexkingsays is joining @rocicorp to lead design. My entire career, I have loved collaborating with great designers. There is just something about a tight feedback loop between ux creativity and engineering creativity that often makes magic happen. Alex has been heroically helping us in nights, weekends, and other miscellaneous scraps of time for the last year. And even with only a tiny fraction of his attention, the results have been *amazing*. Collaborating on replicache.dev/ has been some of the most fun I've had in years. I could not imagine a better design partner for our company, and cannot wait to share what we have in store next.

But I guess with the caveat that this is still a work in progress, here's the comp explainer we share with candidates at Rocicorp that explains how our company works: replicache.notion.site/Rocic…
