A heartfelt thank you to our amazing community!
Your curiosity, creativity, and collaboration have driven Catalyst forward this year. Every build, every event attended, and every idea shared has made a real impact. We couldn't have achieved these milestones without you, and we're excited to continue this journey together building, learning, and innovating in the years to come!
The road ahead
We'll ship more features. Host more events. Expand to more regions. Write more documentation. These are the measurable parts. The unmeasurable parts matter more: earning continued trust, building things that respect your time, maintaining a community that values helping over gatekeeping, staying honest about limitations while pushing boundaries where it matters. We'll keep working on that.
