Press kits for journalists covering your tool
A `/press` page with logo SVG, founder quote, and factual feature list speeds ethical coverage. Avoid astroturf testimonials; link to verifiable metrics if you publish them.
Respond to press emails within one business day when possible.
gzip and Brotli for text assets
Modern hosts compress HTML/CSS/JS automatically. Verify with `curl -H 'Accept-Encoding: br' -I` so you are not accidentally serving uncompressed bundles.
Precompressed uploads matter most when you self-host without a CDN layer.
