@harryfk sadly my skills are more on the development side of things but I love everything about what you all are doing here! A question, if you don't mind, do you feel developers are becoming less valuable at companies of your size?
It seems like a like of boutique / visionary companies outsource their development? (You all may not, but this is just something I noticed elsewhere)
I might be totally off, but would love to hear your thoughts 🙂

@zachuorice Hmm, we certainly do not outsource development, I’m a dev myself and we’re booked out for months in that regard. Some non-profit clients specifically work with us because we don’t outsource (easier to get grants). I also feel having your devs in-house is invaluable if you want to play around with your own product ideas, being able to throw together a quick prototype. It’s such an advantage if you treat devs as creatives and make them part of the creative process.
