Ah, friends, today we stand at the crossroads of innovation, reflecting on an incredible journey that began with CodeSandbox Version 1. I remember the day we launched it like it was yesterday—a small idea that blossomed into something far bigger than we ever imagined. It was a simple, yet powerful browser-based code editor that opened doors to creativity and collaboration in ways that we hadn’t seen before.
Version 1 was more than just a tool; it was our first step into a new way of thinking about coding. It was the beginning of something truly special. With every project, every shared sandbox, and every new user who discovered the joy of rapid prototyping, we were building something that mattered. The excitement, the late nights, the countless feedback loops—it all fueled our passion and drove us to keep pushing the boundaries.
But as with all things in tech, progress is our lifeblood. And while it’s bittersweet to say goodbye to Version 1, we must remember that its legacy lives on in the foundation it laid for what comes next. It’s because of Version 1 that we were able to dream even bigger, to imagine a version that could do more, be faster, and bring even greater joy to developers around the world.
And so, here we are, standing on the threshold of CodeSandbox Version 2. It’s not just an update; it’s a leap forward, a bold new chapter in our story. While we close the book on Version 1, we do so with immense gratitude for everything it taught us and the community it helped us build. It was the stepping stone, the proof of concept, and the inspiration that led us here.
Version 1, you served us well. You were our launchpad, our spark. And now, as we embrace Version 2, we do so with the same enthusiasm and commitment to innovation that got us started in the first place. Here’s to the future, built on the shoulders of the past. Let’s make it even more amazing together!
Cheers, and onward! 🚀
