Why we started torus.dev

Most of what a product team learns never leaves the team. It sits in Figma comments, Slack threads and pull request reviews, and it is gone the moment someone scrolls past it. torus.dev is where we keep the useful parts.

Who writes here

Anyone on the team building Torus Mara: engineers, product designers, product managers, QA and DevOps. If you worked on it, you can write about it.

What we publish

  • Design decisions and the trade-offs we made to reach them.
  • Engineering notes on the systems that move money across currencies.
  • Post-mortems, including the slightly embarrassing ones.
  • Opinions. Two posts disagreeing with each other is fine.

How to post

Ask a site admin for an author account, then write under Posts › Add New. Pick one topic, add a featured image if you have one, and submit it for review. Every H2 in your post becomes a numbered section in the “On this page” list. Tag short API notes with Developer Notes and they appear in the blue band on the home page.

Building on our payout or virtual account APIs? The docs live at docs.torusmara.com.
