We recently launched the public beta of Devblog, a new, faster and hassle-free way of blogging for developers. More than 950 bloggers have unlocked their blog and ~55% of them have started using it actively. Our team is super pumped by the initial response and we are working hard to roll out new and most requested features every day.

In case you don't know, Devblog has a Google Page Speed score of >90 and supports AMP out of the box. 🎉
It matters. Give it a shot: Unlock your blog here.
