# SHIP Policy — Build in Public

What counts as a SHIP, the minimum monthly commitment and how shipping is evaluated.

Last updated 2026-10-13

## What is SHIP?

SHIP means publishing anything you're building, learning, or sharing to the public — articles, products, ideas, experiences...

"Ship early, ship often, ship with intention."

## Minimum SHIP Commitment

- Quantity: At least 4 times/month (avg. once/week), not all at the end of the month
- Format: Public posts with links (blog, social media, website...)
- Report: Share the link in the #ship Discord channel
- Purpose: So the community can support, engage, and give feedback

## What Counts as a SHIP

Accepted:

- Personal profile: Introducing yourself, LinkedIn updates, portfolio
- Product: MVP, beta, new feature, demo
- Expert knowledge: Tutorial, guides, tips & tricks
- Work experience: Lessons learned, behind the scenes
- Ideas: Concept, wireframe, validation

Not accepted:

- Simple reposts/shares without original content
- Private posts without a public link
- Comments on others' posts

## Weekly SHIP Process

1. Create content (article, video, product...)
2. Post it PUBLIC (blog, social, website...)
3. Copy the post link
4. Share it in the #ship Discord channel
5. Community comes in to support and engage

## Monthly Evaluation

- 0–1 posts: Not met — Warning
- 2–3 posts: Below expectation — Reminder
- 4+ posts: Meets requirement
- 8+ posts: Outstanding
- 12+ posts: Top Shipper

## Community Support

When you SHIP in #ship, other members will like/react, leave constructive feedback, share if the content is good, and connect if there's synergy.

NLB Culture: "Support first, critique second"
