I recently shipped a (long!) blog post recapping what went down during Vercel's first ever company-wide offsite (affectionately referred to as an 'ORTBO' :smile: ) which I figured I'd also share with ya'll → [](https://www.rizwanakhan.com/prose/vercel-ortbo) What's interesting about this specific blog post is that, since it was the longest one I'd written thus far, I wanted to style it differently to make it stand-out/more visually appealing. So, I ended up drawing + animating assets (a "triangle" for the header and "California" in my shaky hand-writing :saluting_face: ) via a custom component made in [@v0](https://x.com/v0) and adding it to my codebase. Check out the [component in action](https://screen.studio/share/0wi5hlkJ) here. Using v0 for this purpose—for me—was indicative of a time where you no longer have to rely on just your 'basic blog post template' :nail_polish: Here's to continuing to ship interesting things. Thank you for reading :yellow_heart: Anshuman Bhardwaj (@anshumanb) · 2025-04-03 · ♥ 2 A really amazing writeup there @rizbizkits :heart: Ryan Furrer (@ryandotfurrer) · 2025-04-03 · ♥ 2 Great writeup and _damn_ the drawings are sick!
