We ran the biggest hackathon I’ve ever been a part of (500+ participants!) and saw some incredible projects come out of it. Thanks to everyone that participated, I’m excited for the next one!
Gratefully, Lane

2. Listen to/Talk to Boots 🔗
You can now listen to Boots’ messages using the “speaker” icon next to his responses in the chat. You can also record voice messages and they’ll be transcribed live if you get tired of typing!
3. Updated Migrations Chapter in SQL Course 🔗
Our SQL course’s migrations chapter was a bit wonky and didn’t flow well, so we’ve updated the whole thing to be more clear and to go through both up and down migrations in a more logical way.
4. New Chest Icons 🔗
Our artist just finished up a brand new set of custom chest icons! We love them!
5. Miscellaneous improvements 🔗
- Fixed issue where confirm modals couldn’t be accepted with the enter key
- More flexible backend scaling for our APIs (most users wouldn’t care, but you might)
What is yet to come 🔗
