== Priorities for the year: ==
* Iterate on what "webmaker content" looks like, measure how users react
** starting point: "webmaker lets you make content that is irresistibly hackable"
* Encourage learning by making
** lean into connected learning - make our tools fun, easy and empowering
** Measure learning through badges
* Develop webmaker experiences that work in the spaces where users live online
** Frictionless sharing to Twitter, Tumblr + Facebook
** Facebook app
** Constrained mobile experience
* Localization
* Develop a method for external partnerships / developers to influence codebase
** ability to fork our codebase and submit pull requests that we can integrate
** ability to activate external libraries, eg Processing.js
* Expose enough "code" (e.g., markup) for users to learn web mechanics if desired
* Make working open and agile both work
== Development process ==
<ul><li>Ship a release a week</li
><li>Focus on early wins that help users make more things, more easily</li
><li>Integrate with Product Marketing to source and build excitement about new content, features</li
><li>Metrics-driven, user-driven priority decision making as we go vs. spec'ing out a year of features now and locking into that.</li
><li>Content&nbsp; possibilities and types drive product priorities: we build tools to&nbsp; support creators vs. hoping creators will find uses for the tools<br/><br
