About this space
A shared space for exploring ideas, together.
🧠What is Build With Ritual?
Build With Ritual is a shared space for people exploring ideas with and around Ritual.
It's not a product directory.
It's not a launch platform.
It's a place to show what you're trying, even if it's messy or unfinished.
🧱What should I post here?
Share what you're exploring with Ritual concepts:
- Ideas you're thinking about
- Experiments you're running
- Prototypes you're building
- Learning projects
- Half-built things
Unfinished is welcome.
Abandoned projects are okay.
"Simple" projects still matter.
🚦What do the project statuses mean?
Idea — something you're thinking about
Not started yet, but you want to explore it.
Building — work in progress
You're actively working on it.
MVP — a working first version
You've built something that works, even if it's minimal.
Dropped — an experiment you decided to stop
You learned something, even if you didn't finish.
Dropped doesn't mean failed.
It means you learned something.
🧮Why is there a project limit?
Each builder can share up to 5 projects at a time.
This limit exists to:
- Keep the Wall readable and thoughtful
- Reduce noise so everyone's work gets seen
- Encourage updating existing projects instead of creating many new ones
It's not about restriction—it's about caring for the space we share.
😊Why can I react only once?
You can react once per emoji to each project.
Reactions are about expressing interest, not voting or ranking.
This keeps reactions meaningful and avoids turning the Wall into a popularity contest.
It's not about competition. It's about connection.
🕰️What is the Project Timeline?
Each project includes a simple timeline that shows meaningful steps in its journey.
The timeline highlights things like:
- when a project was created
- when its status changed
- when it was archived or unarchived
- when it was hidden from or restored to the wall
- when collaboration signals were opened or closed
- when someone expressed interest in helping or building
- when implementation credit was added or removed
It's not a changelog.
It's a quiet record of progress and decisions.
💬How do comments work?
Comments are meant for questions and context — not debate.
Project creators can reply directly, and their responses are highlighted so conversations stay clear and grounded.
If a question hasn't been answered yet, it's gently marked — not to pressure anyone, but to make dialogue easier.
🤝How does collaboration work?
Project creators can signal their openness to collaboration in two ways:
Open to collaboration
You're open to ideas, feedback, or help from others on your project.
Looking for someone to build this
You're sharing an idea and looking for someone to take the lead on implementation.
When these signals are enabled, visitors can express interest by clicking "I'd like to help" or "I can take this forward". This simply notifies the project creator—there's no commitment, and the list of interested people is private to the creator.
Collaboration is about connection, not ownership transfer.
✨What is implementation credit?
If someone else builds your idea, you can credit them by setting "Implementation credited to" with their username.
This appears on the project page and is recorded in the timeline. You can add or remove it at any time.
It's a way to recognize contribution while keeping the original idea visible.
📦What's the difference between Archive and Hide?
These are two independent states that serve different purposes:
Hide from Wall
Removes the project from the main wall, but it remains fully interactive. Comments, reactions, and collaboration features still work. The project is still accessible via direct link.
Archive Project
Puts the project in read-only mode. New comments, reactions, and collaboration actions are disabled. The project remains visible on the wall (unless also hidden) but is clearly marked as archived.
You can hide without archiving, archive without hiding, or do both. They work independently.
🌱What is the goal of this space?
This space exists to make starting easier.
Not to reward perfection.
Not to rank success.
Just to build, together.
We want to:
- Encourage curiosity and experimentation
- Normalize sharing early work
- Reduce fear of "not being good enough"
- Create a space where process matters more than results
