Some silos are meant to be broken. Two years ago, me with my friend Arsen onboarded on a journey to bring web designers and web developers together under a single app so they can enjoy creative collaboration the way we did. So we decided to experiment and create a place where we can collaborate, create and contribute to each other process in a way that’s frictionless, requires less management and prompts expression and creativity. An app that’s great for designers, great for developers but most importantly for collaboration between them. With this idea in mind we assembled a small team and about a half year ago we launched a first private beta of Control. We onboarded about 300 test users and been extremely delighted by all the great work they done in Control. Today we’re launching our first public version! 🥂

Hey Ctrl team, congratz on the launch! Is it more suitable for solo designers or it’s more for design studios with in-house developers?
Arsen Batyuchok 🇺🇦
@oleg_svirskyi Hey, good question! Control is built in such a way that allows solo creatives to turn a blank page into a fully interactive website. Though it's full potential can be unleashed when used in collaboration between designers and developers.

This looks fantastic! I often wished for a website builder like this back then. It is easy to use and at the same time extremely flexible. The only criticism I have is that you should optimize the appearance of the websites on smartphones. Some texts are cut off on the iPhone.

@useai hi, thanks a lot for the feedback! Can you share the link so I can debug?
Julian Fleig
@arsen_batyuchok For example at the end of your example site about the soviet secret service the "Publishing" slogan.
Arsen Batyuchok
@useai well that’s kind of intentional but thanks!
Julian Fleig
@arsen_batyuchok1 Ohh, sry then. Then my criticism was unfounded and wrong.
