Logging
Build log entries
About, Terms, Privacy and Guidelines
The pages that say who's behind Axiean and how it works. The About page tells why Axiean exists and who is building it. The Terms of Service, Privacy Policy and Community Guidelines are written to be read, with a short summary at the top of each. A few of their promises the code…
Axiean is live
axiean.com is up. It runs on one server in Frankfurt, in Docker containers behind Caddy, which takes care of HTTPS. The database and the API aren't reachable from the internet: only the web server talks to them. The site's emails go out through Resend. One server is plenty for…
Locking the doors
A security pass before going live. Browsers now talk only to Axiean's own web server, which relays their requests to the API over a private network; the API refuses anyone else. Sign-in tokens live in cookies that page scripts can't read, and every change is checked against…
The logo's colors
Buttons and accents now use the logo's own blue and yellow. The blue is for actions, votes and links; the yellow is saved for launches and anything new. In dark mode the blue is lifted so text on it stays readable, and the yellow never carries text on light paper, where it would…
A blog, image uploads and being findable
Three pieces of plumbing: - A blog for guides and stories about building with AI, written in Markdown, one language per post, with translations linked to each other. - Image uploads to S3-compatible storage. Every image is checked, stripped of its metadata (a photo's location…
Build logs (you're reading one)
Launch day is a single moment, but products keep changing. Build logs are dated entries on a project, so its story keeps going after the launch. Entries written before a launch are the project's back story: they stay on its page and on the maker's profile, but never show up as…
Notifications
A bell in the header now tells you when someone follows you, comments on your project or invites you to an organization, and when a moderator decides something about your content. Busy moments don't flood it: ten new followers become one notification that names the latest few.…
Moderation, before there's anything to moderate
Better to build the tools before they're needed. Anyone can report a comment or a project. Moderators see reports grouped per item, so they decide once. They can remove and restore content, suspend or restrict accounts for a set time, and discard manipulated votes. Whoever is…
Saving, following and talking
Three small things that make a site feel alive: - Save any project for later. Saved lists are private, and there are no save counts anywhere. - Follow makers, and the Following tab shows their launches and build log entries. - Comment under each project. Comments are plain text,…
A maker's ledger on graph paper
I didn't want Axiean to look like every other AI product: no gradients, no glass, no glowing purple. The idea instead is a maker's ledger on graph paper. Products are points plotted on a map, the feed reads like a dated ledger of launches, and the identity lives in type and…
