It would be great with a demo of the product. Also, i really thought this was a product my Medium. The logos are really similar :-)

Thanks for the feedback David! Definitely don't want to cause confusion about the brand. I was hoping there was enough distance but might need to re-think the logo if people deem it's too similar. Its meant to represent two layers (your product, and an interaction layer).
have to admit I thought it's made my Medium (kind of because of the logo but mainly because of a very nice landing page - good job!).
no need to change it. most things in design aren't new.
this is amazing - what book is it from?
Trade Marks & Symbols by Yasaburo Kuwayama. If it hasn't been posted to Product Hunt Books, then it's all yours to post 😬

Hello Hunters! I'm the maker of Hud, a simple way to create pattern libraries you can share with your team and the public. I was inspired to build this to help our own team catalogue our UI components and overall design language. I believe there is an interesting opportunity to create an "interaction management system" that manages both UI components and internal design docs. Imagine being able to build and collaborate on components before publishing to your product via GitHub or a hosted CSS file. In future you'll be able to share your components with others, combine components to form prototypes, and share components across platforms. To give you an idea of a what library could look like check out . There are loads of possibilities and directions this could go, and I'm excited to get your feedback and answer some questions :)
Sounds cool but the examples don't load for me in Chrome/Mac:
I don't see much on the bootstrap pages on Safari/Mac either.

Thanks for letting me know Geoffrey. Fix is currently being deployed. eta 20 minutes.
Very cool and clean! Great job!
Maker
Thanks Jonathan!
This could be great for small startup teams, like my cofounder and myself. We're kind of pinch hitting design while getting our beta up but seems like this would add some structure and discipline.
Maker
Spot on! Initial target audience is smaller teams who don't necessarily have the resources to dedicate a full team to building and maintaining a design language. I think its valuable for design teams to set constraints and enforce consistency, especially when scaling.
Really awesome product, I've always thought something like this should exist. Can't wait to start building CSS from an interface like this!
Maker
Thanks James! I'm getting a lot of validation around publishing from within Hud. How do you see it fitting into your process?
I would love to go from base styles -> elements -> layouts in an interface like this. I like the “codepen-like” approach on the roadmap. I would love to be able to edit or create a new element and only see the styles which apply to that element, so it became sort of a web-ide for authoring CSS projects.
It's really good :) Good job. And, logo has a far resemblance with Medium logo. 😉
Maker
Thanks Sajeesh! That seems to be the consensus unfortunately. Will definitely play around with the form to create some more contrast. Definitely wasn't my intention. :)
it would be awesome to see more explanation and demo of product before sign up. Btw it is really cool.
Great idea! Question, how is it different from ? I'm looking for something we can host on prem for enterprise due to privacy and security concerns. We'd be including code snippets for communication with end points etc
have sort of the same question - self-hosted is a must!
It looks very cool and promising! I'll try it this week :) Thank you!
Maker
Thanks Julie!
Will definitely try it out! Seems like it has a chance to make our life a bit easier :)
