Layers

📌

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

@liampmccabe That's a great suggestion! I wonder how Layers supports collaboration among designers - do they offer any specific features for sharing feedback or working on projects together? It would be interesting to explore how this platform fosters a sense of community and creativity among its users. Looking forward to discovering more about Layers! Congratulations on your launch and UpVoted..

@liampmccabe love this 🙌🏻 > it would be for the members to own it and the code to be open-source (or at least open to the members) I'm not a designer myself but I still want to check it out :) Congrats on the launch and on building a thriving community!

I love the overall design of this product! It looks like another Dribbble? What are the advantages of Layers?

@bonvisions I think the advantage is that it is not Dribbble. XD

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?

Thanks @ryangilbert! Not much really, I've only recently started investing in X ads, sending emails out etc

@liampmccabe Interesting! Have X ads been worth it so far?

@ryangilbert @liampmccabe is that to say a lot of it has been word of mouth up til now? Congrats - I feel like this is the type of product so many people dream of building but it really hard to execute on :) well done
