New Additions

New Additions

The platform, initially designed solely for coding professionals, required an expansion of scope to cater to all types of software professionals.

This necessitated the addition of new features and modules, modifications to existing features, and the incorporation of new visual functions and enhancements.

Furthermore, a complete overhaul of the colour scheme was proposed to align with the expanded target audience and create a fresh, modern visual identity.
