Back to this week’s newsletter with a case study on Appsmith’s community approach and updates from the world of community 🙂👇

🤝 Appsmith - the story about how a super-involved community is helping shape a product developers love

"I had about 200-300 guests attending my wedding. Our goal was let's launch the product at my wedding so that we get at least a few hundred downloads." - Abhishek Nayak

Appsmith is the story of persistence. Learnings from multiple failures and passion for shipping products - this startup rollercoaster is as exciting as it can get.

Appsmith was founded in mid-2019 and its open source software has been downloaded over 5 million times with users at over 1,000 enterprises in 100-plus countries. Appsmith is the open-source framework that lets your team build custom internal applications like dashboards, admin panels, CRUD apps faster, and together.

For a use case like that of Appsmith, it was vital to be engaged with the developers (users of the product) who were using their open-source platform to build internal tools - to get their feedback and learn from them on how they could improvise their product.
