Build in public and the visibility pressure
Building in public is powerful for audience building and accountability. But it creates pressure: your followers see your app, use it, and will publicly comment when things break. Your production quality is on display.
The pre-tweet checklist
Before you tweet "just shipped X":
- Test the feature as a real user (logged-out, fresh account)
- Check ProdFix for any new errors in the last 10 minutes
- Verify the feature works on mobile
- Confirm the Core Web Vitals haven't regressed
Setting up real-time monitoring for your audience
When you tweet about a feature, traffic spikes. Be ready: have ProdFix open, alerts configured, and a rollback plan. Most build-in-public disasters happen in the first 30 minutes after a tweet.
When something breaks publicly
It will happen. When it does: tweet immediately ("we're aware of an issue, fixing now"), fix it fast with your monitoring + AI tools, then tweet the fix. The community respects transparency and speed more than perfection.
The compounding trust benefit
When your followers see you catch and fix bugs fast, they trust you more. Showing your monitoring, showing your process, showing your response to failures — this builds credibility faster than showing only success.
Stop flying blind in production.
