Congrats guys. I haven't had a chance to check out the full thing yet (reading HN on my iPad) but from a quick glance it looks incredibly thorough and well-done

I think there will always be a contingent of folks who prefer to hand-code this stuff, but there is a larger contingent of folks for whom a great set of visual design tools will be incredibly valuable. So good on ya and good luck.
- callmevlad 14y agoThank you! Hopefully it doesn't look horrendous on iPad :) Absolutely agree with you about hand-coding. I'm one of those folks! It's hard (impossible?) to compete with the flexibility and power of pure code, but we can try right?
- paulmckeever 14y agoI completely agree. Being able to hand-code doesn't mean it's always the easiest way to develop an idea. And well done guys. Getting this far in 7 months is very impressive. Having been part of the team that designed and built Typecast (http://typecast.com http://typecast.com), it took us over a year to really get somewhere. Building browser-based design tools is way harder than it looks.
- callmevlad 14y agoHi Paul, thanks for the kind words! You guys have built an awesome tool at Typecast! It truly is harder than it looks. Oh, and say hi to Jamie :)
