2x2.page is a daily curation platform that showcases four interesting products, services, or tools each day, arranged in a signature 2x2 grid. Each pick includes a category badge, a short tagline, and a brief explanation of why it was selected.
The site covers a range of categories — AI tools, developer utilities, finance apps, productivity software, and more — aimed at people who enjoy discovering new things without the noise of a typical product hunt.
The entire site is statically generated with Astro and deployed on Cloudflare Pages, meaning zero runtime costs and fast global delivery through Cloudflare’s CDN. Daily posts are stored as YAML files in the repository with strict schema validation via Zod — each day must have exactly four items with a name, URL, category, tagline, and rationale.
Publishing a new day’s picks is as simple as committing a YAML file. A GitHub Actions workflow handles the build and deploy automatically on push, on a daily schedule, or via manual trigger.
The site supports chronological browsing with daily, monthly, and yearly archive views. The month view presents a calendar grid showing which days have picks and aggregate stats.
An RSS feed provides full-text content for subscribers, and all outbound links include referral tracking. The design is minimal and vibrant — color-coded cards with staggered animations and a clean typographic hierarchy.
