We decided to build NoBueno publicly, document everything we are going through... at the end of the day it is not only about the product, it is not only about celebrating the big wins and the media headlines, the essence of the journey is the experience we go through and the learnings we build. 
We decided to share all this with you, truthfully and authentically.
