Penpot 2.0 deployment is underway, and an outage is now in effect. ⚠️ The process is expected to last approximately 4 hours. We'll notify you once everything is up and running smoothly. Thank you for your patience!
Playing around with the @penpot 2.0 Early Access, I am happy to say that I will finally be ditching Figma as the last proprietary piece of software in my workflow. :blobfoxuwu:
The app has gone a long way and I'd encourage everyone who tried it in the past to give it another shot, as well as those who held off on trying it before.
Penpot is a huge project in terms of code that may need some introduction to some of you who might be interested in better learn how you could help contribute to it.
Alejandro Alonso CIO & dev at Penpot, gave us a hands-on demo of how to use Penpot’s repository and make changes in both front and back end. He used part of the code based on Access Tokens to put an example on how to dive into Penpot’s code!
Only feedback after watching the vid: Please, don't let AI handle #a11y .. maybe take inspiration from Ian 'Hixie' Hickson (Google Doc 😬 link at the bottom): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34612696
@smallcircles@jsonstein Hey!. The fact that Penpot is all about open standards like SVG and also CSS doesn't mean we are limited by them. On the contrary, we're always looking for innovative ways to bridge the gap between design & code in the age of AI.
Of particular relevance are two keynotes at recent Penpot Fest. https://youtu.be/NuLbFcTrtco
I want to thank the organizers of the @penpot fest to have let me in without proper accreditation so I could mingle with the attendees during their lunch break today.
It's great to have such event in #Barcelona. More people need to hear about this great #OpenSource alternative to #Figma and other proprietary #UX#Design tools.
For anyone interested, there is still a freely accessible video streaming of the conference tomorrow. #PenpotFest
