Hello again,
After many, many years of hard work, testing, and community feedback, Elements is now officially a 1.0 product, ready for real-world projects 
You can now choose to try it for free with the new trial mode, or purchase a license to unlock the full experience.
While reaching 1.0 is a big milestone, we know our work is far from done. We’re continuing to ship weekly updates with improvements, fixes, and new features, many of which are based on your feedback.
We know some of you are thinking, “Yeah, but what about that missing feature or unfixed bug?” And that’s totally fair. But remember: 1.0 is just a number.
In software, 1.0 doesn’t mean “finished”, it simply marks the point where the product is stable, useful, and ready for a wider audience. It’s a milestone, not a finish line. The truth is, great software is never really done. It evolves through constant feedback, iteration, and improvement. With Elements, reaching 1.0 means we’re confident in the foundation!
We’re already hard at work on 1.0.1, which ships later this week, and 1.0.2 soon after… Just because we’ve hit 1.0 doesn’t mean we’re slowing down. If anything, we’re more focused than ever.
Elements will keep evolving, and we’re committed to making it the best, most enjoyable way to build for the modern web. Your feedback continues to shape the future of Elements, there’s plenty of exciting things just around the corner 
A huge thank you to everyone here for helping us get this far. Your support, feedback, and love for the product have meant the world to us — and honestly, it’s what’s kept us going.
We can’t wait to show you what’s next 
Much love,
Team Elements

In last week’s Dev Diary video, you told us an update regarding the cost would come later that week. We are in the middle of the week after. Any news on this one? Really curious about the CMS and how it’s going.
Do you have a time-stamp in the video so I can find out what exactly what I said?
