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 http://gethud.com/l/bootstrap. There are loads of possibilities and directions this could go, and I'm excited to get your feedback and answer some questions :)

@saxonfletcher Sounds cool but the examples don't load for me in Chrome/Mac: http://imgur.com/a/mvbPY

@widawskij Thanks Jonathan!

Looks nice from what little I can see in the screenshots but why gate the whole thing behind a login/sign up?

@sshakeel Hey Salman, this is good feedback. One of my next jobs is to bulk out the homepage a little bit.
Demetri Nerris
This will definitely be useful. Looking forward to digging in!

@tchret Awesome. Thanks Thomas :)
Andrea Soverini
Hey @saxonfletcher looks slick! I haven't tried yet tho, what is the main difference from Frontify's style guides? https://frontify.com/styleguide#...
Darshan Gajara
Looks pretty promising. Hope that it solves the problem of creating and maintaining the style guide and component libraries accessible on the web.

Seems like this could be awesome - providing the structure to build turnkey brand bibles from palette to functioning UX. Testing ASAP. @gethub @saxonfletcher
Vytas Butkevicius
Will definitely try it out! Seems like it has a chance to make our life a bit easier :)

The product has a huge potential. We have built something internally similar to this. https://www.nordnet.se/brand/ When we needed to communicate with the developers or outside of the company we hit to a threshold of how to use it. It might be great to have a tutorial, samples, code blocks to help people build their own. The bootstrap example is great but It would be fantastic to see some atomic design examples or similar. It will help immensely to Hud to be a product that will be used and loved by many. Great job regardless, keep up the hard work.

It's really good :) Good job. And, logo has a far resemblance with Medium logo. 😉

@philipsajeesh 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. :)
Enrique Benitez
This is very (super) useful! I'm trying it right now :)
Marc
At first I thought its Medium Logo, but hey its not :)
Haichen Wang
Great idea! Question, how is it different from http://hugeinc.github.io/stylegu... ? 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
Umit Akcan
it would be awesome to see more explanation and demo of product before sign up. Btw it is really cool.
James Futhey
Really awesome product, I've always thought something like this should exist. Can't wait to start building CSS from an interface like this!

@futhey Thanks James! I'm getting a lot of validation around publishing from within Hud. How do you see it fitting into your process?
James Futhey
@saxonfletcher 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.
