Roll20 Community Corner #7: 5/12/2017 - Updates & Community News. Roll20CON Key Art!

Written by The Roll20 Team | May 12, 2017 7:00:00 AM

Greetings to our wonderful community.

This is my favorite part of the week and once again I am so excited to share, so check it out...

Developer Spotlight

Hi rollers, here’s what’s new in the Tech Corner.

As I hinted last week, we spent most of this week working on the first steps of a couple larger projects. So, while we don’t have a lot of changes out on the Dev server today, we’re hard at work on a suite of polishes and improvements I hope to tease next week.

Spoiler Warning: It’s for the Compendium and the changes are awesome.

In other news, our dev team is more than doubling in size. I’m super excited to be bringing in a wide range of skill sets and backgrounds to help improve Roll20. There will be a short term drop in productivity, as a lot of the dev team’s energy is focused on getting our new team familiar and jamming on the codebase, followed by hopefully a Roll20 Renaissance. -Steve
