I'm super excited to finally be launching Layers on Product Hunt! 🚀 Layers started out as a passion project of mine after seeing so many designers dissatisfied with existing design platforms. Realising that I too had given up on these platforms I decided to build my own. It's a dream working on Layers and I've already made so many meaningful relationships that I already consider it a success. But if I was to have a goal for Layers, it would be for the members to own it and the code to be open-source (or at least open to the members). A community platform truly owned by the community I feel has much higher chance of thriving than one that isn't. We've been in private beta for a while and since then we've: 🌎 Grown the community to over 20k members. ⛴️ Shipped a tonne of features like: attachments, scheduling, analytics, teams, messaging and more. 🚀 Launched a premium subscription called Layers Plus! 🎧 Started a podcast called Overlay! 💬 Grown an active Discord server. To celebrate our PH launch, you can grab 30% off the Layers Plus annual plan, using the code PHLAUNCH30. This deal will be available for a limited time only so make the most of it 😄 A huge thanks to the whole Layers community ❤️ Liam

Congrats on the launch (and hitting #1 @liampmccabe). It’s been so inspiring watching you create and build a community like this.

Super excited for this launch! Liam gave the design community a new place they can call home. It's definitely the one of the next place people will look up during the next years. Exciting time to be aboard 🎉

I'm a huge fan of Layers, it's a great community!

Congrats on the PH launch @liampmccabe ! I've been browsing Layers for a few months now and it's quickly become one of my go-to places for inspiration. You've built something special here 🙌

Nice work Liam 🥳

Congratulations on the launch, @liampmccabe 🥳 It's been amazing to see the journey of Layers over the past couple of months, and the progress made. It's a beautifully simple UI, with contributions from amazing designers, developers and more. I am looking forward to continuing to be part of the community 💪

Love the design. Is this the new Dribbble, then? Just got my account up. Will post some designs soon.

Excited to see the community grow!

congrats Liam! been a member of Layers for a while, keep up the great work! I may need to update my Layers portfolio soon! 🤔

Everyone here at @clayhq loves Layers! Keep up the amazing work @liampmccabe 🙌

Congrats on the launch! I've found myself on Layers a few times this year from Twitter. This reminded me to bookmark and come back more often :)

Congrats for the launch and for the result! Stay awesome!

Congrats @liampmccabe 👏

Finally something that recreated the magic and vibe of early Dribble. Love it!

Congrats @liampmccabe. Layers feels like home.

Congrats! Looks awesome

Congrats on the launch @liampmccabe 🙌 It's been fascinating watching you build and iterate on this in public. Q: Growing to 20k users is impressive. How did getting your first 1,000 differ from your last 1,000?
