Launching dailystand.dev and bringing it into focus

A launch-focused update on shipping dailystand.dev in week 1 and making it easier to discover across the site.

This entry focuses on launching dailystand.dev in week 1 and bringing it into clearer focus.

The product was already live, and it already had both a write-up and a project page:

This week was about making it easier to discover and understand in one pass.

What I focused on

  • Re-centered the layoff log around weekly updates instead of daily placeholders.
  • Added this kickoff entry to anchor the narrative to a real shipped product.
  • Cross-linked the product, article, and project page so each reinforces the other.

Why this matters

dailystand.dev is more than a demo. It is a production-ready async standup platform that can be self-hosted, extended, and integrated with modern team workflows.

Making that clearer across the site turns it from “one more project in a list” into a stronger signal of product and engineering depth.
