Bitcoin TLDR pitch

TL;DR - we summarized all the bitocin-dev and lightning-dev mailing list and made them consumable for you.

The long version

There’s a very steep learning curve in joining technical Bitcoin conversations. Crucial conversations, such as the bitcoin-dev and lightning-dev mailing lists. 

The learning curve is so steep that many won’t even bother… (not to mention that the current UX isn't exactly great.)

That means less devs reading and engaging this material. Less problems solved. Or problems solved slower. 

So we fixed it! We built Bitcoin TLDR, which creates accessible, understandable, and inviting AI-summarized Bitcoin and Lightning mailing list posts and threads.

🎢 Experience for Yourself

Check out our live product below! 

⚒️ How We Built This

  • We built using light scrum methodology cycles of “plan, build, review, adjust”

  • All our code is for the public to play and fork on github

  • We ongoingly solicited feedback from users to ensure we’re meeting and exceeding their needs (we’re building for them after all!)

  • We used surveys and moderated usability tests to get feedback about our products

💽 Technical Stuff

  • The static XML files are generated at mailing-list-summaries (much of which was built before July) and synced via submodule

  • The front end is a nextJS app

⏩ And Then What?

Now

  • TLDR: tens of thousands of bitcoin-dev and lightning-dev mailing lists posts summarised

Next

  • TLDR: surface old mailing list threads lost in the sands of time

Later

  • Add more sources like StackExchange question of the week
