It was a very important month for us to launch some of these fundamental initiatives that will support everything we do in 2018 and beyond, and I am super excited to kick off my workshops, so you should definitely get a membership for that.

There are many features on the backlog and many improvements to usability that need to happen and bugs that need to be ironed out. I think we're only scratching the surface on what an ideal experience is for all members and I am so excited to take some big leaps with all of you.

Happy coding!

I'm constantly blown away by the curiosity, knowledge, goodness, and compassion of the community members here on dev.to.

January was a big month for releasing long-term initiatives in the form of sustaining memberships, scholarships, workshops, and our first sponsorships. We're just in the early stages on each of these pushes, and we'll continue working hard to ensure that the new offerings truly enrich your experience of being a member here.

Thanks for everything, and on to another great month!
