Codelessly Backer Update #4

Hi ,

I hope Codelessly is living up to your expectations. If not, please reply to this email or setup a meeting with me so I can get your feedback.

Over the past two weeks, we've made over 100+ improvements to the editor. But what's incredible is that if you take a screenshot of the before and after, Codelessly looks exactly the same.

Let me explain by discussing the concept of the "seen" and "unseen".

The things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.— 2 Corinthians 4:18

So far, we've been working on the "unseen". We've built support for:

• Website Components V1. 80+ website components.
• Load API V1. Connect your APIs and data.

Starting next week, we'll be working on the "seen" and you'll be able to start using Website Components and connecting APIs to layouts.

Meetings availability change:

If you haven't gotten started with Codelessly or met with us yet, please book your complimentary meeting! Our availability is very likely to be reduced after next week.
