The Hardest Truth

Almost 4000 years ago the scene drawn above was cast over Djehutihotep's tomb.

As the governor of Egypt passed away the story of how a massive statue of him was transported needed to be told one last time.

Humanity has made incredible leaps.

  • We have flied and traveled to the Moon in less than 100 years,
  • We can have a call in real time from different continents for free,
  • We eradicated diseases and invented a vaccine to stop a pandemic.

But the way we work at creating front-end software is the same the people pushing the statue of Djehutihotep used.

šŸ‘‰ 2 or 3 of them direct the work and say where things should be moving.

šŸ‘‰ The rest listens and executes.

āž”ļø The designers design in Figma.

āž”ļø The developers build everything with code.

With only one difference.

Everything now happens on a software.

And if designers design on a software what developers implement in software, there must be a way to bring software on the front line.

And well, there is.

It's Polipo.
