Summary

Jam is preparing to launch its latest feature, the blur tool, which allows users to blur elements in their browser while recording. A recent episode of Building Jam explores the development process of this feature, including a Figma walkthrough, a staging demo, and various design considerations such as maintaining simplicity in the extension and deciding against per-team access to offer more free blur options. The episode highlights the engineering challenges faced during development, primarily focusing on aspects other than the core feature itself. Building Jam, which releases new episodes every Friday, showcases these developments on platforms like YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts, and promotes Jam as a tool that enables quick bug capture in a user-friendly format.
