@dan a little confused now on devpacks, hopefully you can can answer and clear this up, also asked the last part 3 times, is this still happening. And from this thread and below, is it ok to now distribute devpacks? I have at least 30, can I zip them up and post > extracts from Elements help > > 1.

It’s still not a good idea to distribute Dev packs as it will slow Elements down. They are for Development purposes only. Everything we wrote in the docs still applies. We’d like to build a way to support sharing of free components, but we have our hands full with finishing Elements 3 and the AI features. I hope very soon we’ll look at building a solution that allows for easier sharing of free components. ---

@dan thanks I will wait until sharing in place I have a lot of components to share, all will be TW4 and kept upto date. Just cannot get involved with selling ---

The real issue here is that there’s apparently no way to have your developed Components in the Store at no cost. Or is there? That would solve the problem. ---

We carefully hand pick partners to ensure the highest standards of quality, reliability, and long term support for RapidWeaver Elements customers. Well there is, but means signing up to stripe, if you are approved to join the partner programme. Almost of my components have been built with TW4 for a long time, I had to reference the cdn to run them within Elements, up until v3 Elements components are great, you can do so much, I still believe they are missing a few controls which would raise them to excellent in my mind - if you visit tailwind and look at the classes/options I would like to see some of them added Simple one is making colors responsive, drives me round the bend I have to write code to achieve this, or hide and add a different component, I like to change colors on smaller screens a lot of the time, ---
