Hi @jeo - thank you for this. I woke up to see this and it is like winning an Emmy. I appreciate you going through the effort of finding things to highlight about so many of us and appreciating us here.

You’ve made my day and I am sure others will be feeling the same.

I know this has been here over a month, but just discovered it, fully 100% agree @jeo, I’ve had a ton of help from the team, and although in my particular case I’ve had some struggles with Coda, as great as the product is, it’s the team that keeps me committed and convinced to put in the time and effort to on board my own team. I believe deeply in the future of Coda with a team like this!

Keep up the great work guys!
