Focus more on user-visible stuff, things users want to use, in your communications.<p>A new hosting provider or build system may be a good idea, but it shouldn‘t be announced to users as improvements. They don‘t care. That should be the invisible part.

Hi, about your homepage screenshot: please don&#x27;t use round checkboxes. Round should be reserved for the universally recognizable radio buttons, and square-ish for checkboxes.<p>Radio buttons are for picking only one option among a group of options. Checkboxes are for lists of options where you can pick all of them if you want.

This is a brilliant concept which I would like to know if it’s open source and you’re willing To create another app using this as the backbone, my concept is a concept that will be the next big thing if marketed and I get the support of others willing to brainstorm with me. I’m a natural born problem solver and serial entrepreneur but im from a country that’s literally preventing me from moving forward… Basically I need the support of likeminded individuals with the skills and the technical know how, the main thing is an open mind with common sense…
