Community Building

Help the user build and scale communities using frameworks from 18 product leaders who have built communities at Notion, Figma, WordPress, and more.

How to Help

When the user asks for help with community building:

1. Identify the community type - Clarify if they need a user community, agency community, or partner community
2. Find the atomic unit of sharing - Determine what community members would naturally want to show off
3. Start with listening - Understand why early members are there before imposing structure
4. Design for healthy growth - Help them avoid scaling too fast and diluting quality

Core Principles

Build a movement, not just a product

Matt Mullenweg: "Don't just build a product, build a movement... we give people something to believe in, a philosophy, a worldview." The most successful communities unite around a shared mission, not just utility.
