So one of the big challenges with serverless and WordPress is that most people don't really know anything about. That's why I spend a lot of time writing articles on it for the Ymir blog.

But I felt I could do more. So I started working on a free video course on serverless (and Ymir too πŸ˜…), I finished the first video over the weekend. youtube.com/watch?v=v9QUbE…

One challenge with Ymir is explaining what the product does. Using the phrase "WordPress serverless DevOps platform" seems like I'm just tossing buzzwords at you. But I'm not! 🀣 The word choices were intentional, and this video explains why! youtube.com/watch?v=jvdSbA…

So wrapped up the design refresh of Ymir. I haven't touched it since 2020 when I put together a dashboard trying to learn Tailwind/Alpine/Livewire at the same time. Here are some before/after pictures πŸ’…

I had an Ymir customer asking me how to install WordPress multisite so I made a video showing how to do it! youtube.com/watch?v=mCI1sQ…

Just launched what I worked on for Ymir last week. You can now create some AWS resources straight from the dashboard without using the CLI. πŸŽ‰ More dashboard improvements to come! πŸ’…

This is something I'm accutely aware of after years reading startup post-mortems. It's also why I'm not looking to take investment for Ymir even if people ask me all the time 🀣 Just want a nice lifestyle business/calm company to fund my open source work ✌️

Let's talk about what it's like to contribute to WordPress outside of the project itself. I've been doing it out of my own pocket for over a decade and it's been a struggle. It's made me think a lot about open source sustainability in WordPress. So here's a 🧡 and a warning 🀣

We're Dec 1st and I can officially say that Ymir made 1k MRR for the first time! πŸŽ‰ Not sure if it'll last this month, but it's a milestone either way. The next one is when I can switch to working on it full time! Who knows when that'll be πŸ˜… Stats: ymirapp.com/open

One thing I always wanted to do with Ymir is to use it as a vehicle to support various causes. Almost from the start, I started donating part of every subscription fee to Stripe Climate. I started with 2% and then bumped it up to 5%. But that was also step one.

Here is Ymir's first case study! JOE Media switched to Ymir and achieved significant cost savings, eliminated their reliance on external agencies, and improved their scalability. Check out the full case study! blog.ymirapp.com/case-study-joe…
