Binary Ninja Blog

A number of folks have pointed out that the website hasn’t changed very much since we launched the product so we thought we’d remedy that. Not only do we have a changelog, but we’ve also launched our blog!

You might notice that the first entry from Andrew is a repost. He originally wrote it last year and published it under his personal blog, but we’ve polished it up a bit and are moving it here so we can have all of our Binary Ninja related blog posts in one place.

We plan a variety of types of blog posts. From brief overviews of our development plans and timelines, to in-depth technical discussions of core design decisions, to walk-throughs of specific features so keep an eye on this space.
