Hey all,

I've spent the past few months working on a website builder (works on desktop & mobile) that makes it easy to create automatically-responsive, collage-like websites -- websites that allow you to overlap text, images, GIFs, YouTube videos, etc. etc.

I launched a few months back, and to my surprise it ended up on the front page of Hacker News and #2 product of the week on Product Hunt.

Since then I've patched up a lot of the builder based on user feedback, and wanted to share it with everyone today.

Motivation

Websites have begun to look more and more similar to one another, which makes sense, given how tedious responsive design can be, but I also lamented that increasingly rare personal website that I used to see everywhere. So I wondered: what if I could create a builder that was so easy to use -- one that would handle responsiveness, performance, usability, deployment, maintenance, etc. for you -- that more people could quickly launch a website of their own?

So this is my attempt at that.

Notable Features

Automatically responsive. Every website automatically works across all screen sizes (try it with the the builder).
Smart embeds. Paste in a supported link (YouTube, SoundCloud, Bandcamp, CodePen, Spotify, a few others) and it will automatically embed playable content.
Actual drag-and-drop. No grids or locking. Overlap, rotate, and position just like you would with a scrapbook.
Custom domains.
Draw on your pages. Draw/doodle directly on your websites.
Free, optional pro. It's free forever. Upgrade only if you need custom domains or more blocks/pages!

Future

A lot more features coming. Soonest are custom fonts + custom code support. Going into 2022, one of the biggest priorities will be the community/discovery features.
