Notes on the products, experiments, and ideas taking shape across Itmeo.

Product

Itmeo Index — a reviewed directory of design tools

Itmeo Index now lists 30 manually reviewed gradient, font, color, and inspiration tools, each checked against its official site.

  • Every listing states the job, the output, the platform, and the price before you click through
  • WebGradients and SiteHunter are clearly labeled "By Itmeo" — nothing gets an automatic first spot
  • Search and category browsing are plain links and GET forms, so every result works without JavaScript
  • New Colors and Inspiration categories add ten reviewed resources without changing the restrained directory template
Product

A calmer way to support Itmeo

The Itmeo donation flow now keeps the amount front and center and sends every contribution through a clear Stripe checkout path.

  • A large amount field comes first, with quick presets directly underneath
  • The donation card uses a softer violet surface and a clearer primary action
  • Checkout failures now show a helpful recovery message instead of a raw server error
Ecosystem

A Home for the Itmeo Ecosystem

Itmeo now has a clearer public home for the products, experiments, and resources built around design and independent making.

  • Projects, gradients, stories, and the founder's notes now live in one place
  • The hub makes it easier to move from an idea to the tool that supports it
  • Product links keep the wider ecosystem close without crowding the main experience
  • The public site remains intentionally simple while new products continue to take shape
Product

The Story Behind the Tools Is Now Public

The Itmeo About page brings the maker story, project timeline, manifesto, and useful links into one readable place.

  • A chronological timeline gives the ecosystem more context
  • The manifesto keeps the principles behind the work visible
  • Blog, gradients, newsletter, and donation links are gathered in one sidebar
  • The page is designed as a quiet reference point, not a product pitch
Maintenance

The Public Pages Are Easier to Find

The Itmeo hub now gives its public pages clearer paths through the header, footer, and project surfaces.

  • About, Blog, Gradients, Manifest, Newsletter, and Donate have clear destinations
  • Product links are grouped by purpose in the footer
  • The same warm visual language carries through the main public surfaces
  • Changelog entries now provide a dated record of what is changing
