A home for next-gen creators
Before the Renaissance, craft lived in crowded workshops—the bottegas.
Paintings were collaborative efforts. The master sketched compositions. Assistants and apprentices ground pigments and painted backgrounds.
Then everything changed. Renaissance artists broke free from the workshop model and became complete creators—studying anatomy, writing poetry, designing machines.
They claimed authorship. The center shifted from collective output to the singular creator.
The same shift is happening now. Code is the marble. The prompt is the chisel. The tools are moving the center again from teams of specialists to single creators.
One person can build a game, cut a film, build a business, create art, ship an app and publish a book.
This is not a bottega. It's a commons for those discovering the ultimate ways of creating and expressing with AI.

Today’s Activity
- Recommendation to adopt a branch-per-feature workflow: create a unique branch for each feature, finish and push that feature, then delete the branch after merging. - Keep pull requests tightly scoped — avoid mixing multiple features in one PR to reduce review complexity and merge collisions. - Benefits called out: isolates work, makes changes easier to manage/review, and lowers chance of merge conflicts. - Cultural note: this requires shifting from a design-style, exploratory workflow to a more focused, branch-per-feature discipline.
