Remember when creating software meant drowning in specifications, endless meetings, and features nobody would use? In 2006, a small Chicago company called 37signals challenged this orthodoxy with "Getting Real" - a manifesto that spread virally among developers tired of bloated processes. The approach was so compelling that even Jeff Bezos invested in the company through his personal fund. This wasn't just another methodology - it was a comprehensive philosophy that would later influence the entire lean startup movement. At its core lies a radical idea: less is more. Instead of chasing feature parity or pleasing everyone, build half a product rather than a half-assed product. Skip the extensive planning and wireframes - they merely represent reality rather than being real themselves. Start with the interface and work backward, validating ideas with actual users before heavy investment. When Basecamp was developed, the team faced numerous constraints: running their design business simultaneously, working across time zones, and bootstrapping without outside funding. Rather than viewing these as obstacles, they embraced them as advantages that forced creativity and ruthless prioritization.
