"I think I can speak for the whole team that we're all a bit of perfectionists, so I don't think we were ever ready to release an alpha."

Lindsay - (0:02:54 )

"The theming was a big thing that I think we wanted to have pretty much a bow on when we released the alpha."

Lindsay - (0:03:22 )

"Shout out to Lindsey for her amazing work on the theming API, which is completely redesigned a lot, lot easier."

Cory - (0:03:59 )

"Shout out to Connor, who's not on this chat today, but he did some amazing work to convert to all of the form controls to use a new API that never existed when these form controls were originally created."

Cory - (0:05:59 )


"We've had quite a few issues reported so far that we're looking into a lot of discussion started."

Lindsay - (0:02:27 )

"Obviously, we couldn't have done this without you."

Lindsay - (0:23:23 )

"I kind of have a component addiction. I really like doing this stuff. So my hobby is also my career, and so that it's cool that that got to converge in such a way that I can work full time on something I actually really enjoy working on."
