We recently wrapped up another workcycle for the Hypergraph application, codenamed "Doughnut." Now, we're taking a moment to reflect on what we have achieved and share our progress with you! ๐
If you're new to the workcycle series: We use workcycles to collectively prioritise our work, assign tasks, and self-organise until the next workcycle. This allows us to jointly set the roadmap, calibrate to the vision, and review hiccups in the process on a regular basis.
Practically, we changed the following within Hypergraph itself:
- Profiles now display initials in the avatar
- Chat prefills the chat with your profile name
- You can now share profiles over a peer-to-peer network
- You can now retrieve shared profiles and content
- You can now backup, reset, and restore your Hypergraph instance from the menubar
- We more clearly separated the main file from supporting files
- We added a credit roll for all contributors, testers, and open source software we use





We also did a bunch of work to implement in Hypergraph during our next workcycle:
- Designed (un)follow profile button
- Designed the followed profile list
- Designed the content feed for the people you follow
- We wrote the Hypergraph Terms



The next post will follow sometime at the start of September, where we will review workcycle "Potato Smiles" ๐ฅ๐ By then, we will have released our beta version of Hypergraph.
If you're interested, you can sign up for testing Hypergraph here or plan a call to get a personal walkthrough of the current version here.
