Too few sampled comments (8) to say how often HN recommends it.?

Why HN links it

HN readers link height.app as an example of a project management tool for whole-company use, often alongside Linear and Asana. The comments praise the product, not any writing; the site is not a blog.

Summarised by Claude from a sample of 8 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

    I like https://airtable.com/ , https://linear.app/ , and https://height.app/ . They are all pushing the limits of interactive web apps, not always entirely successfully, but the overall product experience is mostly smooth and polished. I wouldn't really be able to say what it means to be "considered good UX by webdev standards," but I develop for the web and I like these three.
