Our Approach

How we run our company and work on projects

Our Playbook and Handbook document how we make successful web and mobile products, and also how we run our company. It’s filled with things we’ve learned based on our own experience and study of others’ experiences. They’re a living document that everyone at thoughtbot can edit in a private GitHub repo.

thoughtbot works to create a more diverse, equitable, inclusive, fulfilling, and safe environment for all people in our community. Our DEI council, with the support and engagement of thoughtbot leadership, leads a number of initiatives that impact how we interact with our clients, our community, and as a team.
