Meta Podcast Details the Sprint to Build Threads for Web

One of the most requested features after Threads launched was a web client, and Meta’s engineers delivered a basic version in under three months. The latest episode of the Meta Tech Podcast dives into that effort, with host Pascal Hartig speaking to Ally C. and Kevin C. from the Threads Web Team.

The two engineers explain how the team moved quickly by relying on Meta’s shared infrastructure and following the nimble engineering practices used by the teams that built Threads for iOS and Android. They also touch on the balance between shipping new functionality and creating engaging user experiences on the platform.

The episode is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, PocketCasts, and Overcast. The Meta Tech Podcast highlights engineering work across Meta, from low-level frameworks to end-user features, and the team invites feedback via Instagram, Threads, and X.
