    A lovely startup story here, from what I understand Colm Tuite was looking for opinions on his then new Design Tool on DN last year.

    What started as a simple Heroku prototype seems to have flourished since joining Marvel. Nice work, and a great example of how this forum has changed lives!

      We also launched Marvel on Designer News when it was a side-project! The first batch of users we got came from here and helped us turn into a startup. Amazing support, thanks all!

        Awesome. Really inspiring stuff, It makes me want to revisit my roughly-137 unfinished side projects :)

      Getting emotional there Tom? :)

      Thanks for following along, I guess it is a nice story. I was kinda lost at one point, had spent a decent amount of money and was struggling to raise funding. Then it all just came together and now we have some exciting plans in the works.

      I can feel a wankery Medium post coming on...

        It might bring me back to Medium; I can no longer stand the clickbait enough to fish for the good stuff.

        Also I think "wankery Medium post" is a good title.

    Is it a real thing or is this a teaser? Can't find any link.

    Solid stuff, looking forward to testing this out. What email address should we be reaching out to enroll in the beta?
