I spent the last three years building Whist, which we shut down on 12/10/2022. This note is a collection of what I’ve learned through the (many) mistakes and successes we’ve gone through on our journey so that we hopefully don’t make them again moving forward.

If you find this note interesting, you can find me on Twitter/LinkedIn.

EDIT: The founding team behind Whist is now working on ParadeDB.
