Episode 161: Managing Product Versions with Max Seelemann

Max Seelemann is one of the founders and developers of Ulysses, one of my favorite Mac and iOS apps. I am excited to talk to him today because it is a different perspective on the software developing process. Ulysses is software I use nearly every day to write up show notes, scripts, articles, and more. I was keen to hear how they built it and the decisions they made throughout the 15 years(!) of development. Show Notes Max Seeleman Ulysses Relay.fm  AppStories / MacStories  Question of the week: What app do you use it for writing?
