Building Trust and Targeting Hobbyists
The chapter discusses the strategy of targeting hobbyists and amateur users initially to slow-roll the adoption of Val Town and build trust over time. They also mention their ongoing project to make their platform web standard compliant to minimize code replacements and emphasize the ease of building projects on Val Town. They discuss domain-specific APIs that are invisible in the execution context and the idea of giving people access to polyfills or exports from Val Town to avoid polluting the API.
