After seeing my boyfriend struggle with getting his Gumroad page to reflect his brand guidelines, I started making a custom CSS theme for him. I realized it would not be much more work to make a simple platform to allow others to do the same, so I did just that.
Within two hours I had a functional MVP and after uploading to Vercel, messaged Gumroad founder Sahil to share what I had made:
Shortly after that message, I was delighted to see Gumroad already throwing some support my way via their Twitter:
The site was also added to the official Gumroad docs and sent out in an email to the creators on the platform.
Although the latest version of Gumroad does not support custom CSS, I learned a lot and had a fun time helping other creatives.
