Three years ago, I put together a website where I listed down all the resources that helped me learn product design. I could've never imagined that this website would go on to become the #1 product of the day on Product Hunt and help thousands (if not millions) to learn product design from the internet. A lot has changed over the past three years for me but I'm still as eager and curious to learn more about design – I keep curating the best of resources. With nothing but love and support from the community, I'm launching the new version of Product Disrupt today. Here's what you get with 2.0: ✨ Fresh new design The new design lets the resources to stand out and makes it easier for you to navigate through it. 📁 16 resource categories I've added 16 new resource categories with fresh curation of blogs, newsletters, podcasts, makers & more… 💌 Dedicated about & newsletter pages With dedicated pages, I've shared the story behind this project and a little something about the maker, that's me. 📲 Improved navigation This new design makes the content easier to consume across all screen sizes. Feel free to ask any questions by commenting here or sending me a DM on Twitter. I won't bite, I promise :) P. S. Check out the Makers category to see some familiar faces 😃

@weirdowizard Darshan, congrats, it looks legit, loved the improved design. I have a couple of questions: 1. Is there an option to submit or propose a link? 2. Will the newsletter released weekly? Or monthly? And finally a suggestion: in the mobile version, would be great if the top menu can be hidden when you scroll down, that way you will have more space to read ;)
Darshan Gajara
@juanpablosarmi Thanks a lot for your feedback, Juan. 1. I don't have an option at this time but feel free to reach out with recommendation on Twitter or dg [at] darshangajara [dot] com 2. The newsletter is half-monthly (twice a month). If things go well, I would look to make it weekly. That's great feedback about the mobile nav, would look to implement this.

Finally it's here and looks amazing, seems like a lot of work has gone behind, thanks for being awesome as usual ✌🏻🔥

@iamarnob6543 Oh yes, was finally able to launch this. Something good came out of this quarantine :)

I've been hearing about this for a while. Glad to see it coming to life! Looking forward to the next steps.

@idmtr Committing in public was getting me a bit embarrassed. But I'm glad I did, it pushed me to finally finish the project.
Rahul Chakraborty
Thanks for all your efforts in making this community even more stronger & useful! <3 Great work on the redesign!
Darshan Gajara
@hckmstrrahul I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for the constant support, Rahul.

👌 So many great content 👎 But I can't help myself to notice that 99% of the people presented are men.... 💁‍♀️ I don't have anything against men, I just have something against misrepresentation of genders
Chris Carlson
Thanks so much for creating this! I've been looking for something like it. One piece of feedback: the Designers/Makers/Entrepreneurs are all men and overwhelmingly, all white men. I encourage you to solicit recommendations from the community to try and improve the diversity and inclusion of this list. Perhaps ask the people that you did include if they can tweet something like, "I was included in this list and would like to recommend to the maker others who do not identify as white men. Who should be included? [LINK]"
Darshan Gajara
@clcmusic I'm glad you found it useful, Chris. Thanks for your feedback, I'll look to make the curation more diverse and update it going forward.
Luis Ouriach
You should be really proud of this, Darshan. You've put in a tonne of work and made some a huge different to a lot fo designers' lives. Congratulations!
Darshan Gajara
@disco_lu Too kind of you to say that, Luis. I'm definitely proud and very grateful to the community for constant support 🙏
Julia Giuliangeli
Congrats for the new version. I only have a bad critique to it. Where are the best designer/makers/entrepreneurs women?
Darshan Gajara
@julia_giuliangeli thanks for your comment, Julia. I understand that I haven't featured many women in those categories. It's only because I haven't been following many women designers & makers, which isn't a conscious decision. I have been very genuine with my curation on the website and have only featured those whose work has inspired or helped me over the years. If I feature something or someone only for the sake of it, then it would be a disservice to my curation in my opinion. That said, I'm definitely looking to follow more women and be inspired by their work. Please feel free to recommend some names that I should be looking at.

@madison_yocum1 Thanks for sharing this, Madison.
Amanda Wedow
This is a really valuable resource! I'll be diving into a lot of these links that I have not come across before. However, I feel really let down by the sections highlighting "designers" and "makers" because those are entirely sections of men. Would love to see non-men on that list as well!
Darshan Gajara
@amanda_wedow Thanks, Amanda. I understand that I haven't featured many women in those categories. It's only because I haven't been following many women designers & makers, which isn't a conscious decision.

Is this website a joke? Not a single woman among the designers, makers, entrepreneurs listed, how blind must you be to put this together.

This is really cool, i loved the 1st one, would love to see some new things in version 2.0 .
Darshan Gajara
@sanni_sahil Thanks for dropping by, Sahil. This is actually version 2.0. What other resources would you like to see on Product Disrupt?
Sanni Sahil
@weirdowizard I'm actually loving it :) Just one suggestion, maybe now you can add subcategories, like under makers you can list what's their products ( just an idea :) )
Darshan Gajara
@sanni_sahil That's a really good idea. I'm making a note of it.
Ahmet Sülek
