The tourist-magnetic wool towns of south Suffolk are river-like in that they swell with visitors during the spring and summer months but are tranquil and still when the weather cools down.

The hamlet boasts a population of 120 inhabitants in its picturesque calico-coloured farmhouses.

It’s like something out of a dream sequence.

I am launching a new app today: Codescribble. Codescribble is a basic shared text editor. Two or more people can open the same file and work on it at the same time, like a basic Google Doc. This focuses on quickly getting you and collaborators on the same document quickly. Feel free to give Codescribble a try. It's live now, and I'd love to hear your thoughts!In this article, I wanted to introduce Codescribble and walk through my development process.
