+# Why?
+This project started with the aim to produce a product that doesn't cater to all usecases, but does what it does well.
+We want a codebase that is well maintainable by a small team, and that can move fast.
+We want a codebase where it is fast and easy to prototype new features and turn them eventually into full implementations, without compromising the quality of the rest of the system. Additionaly the product should be portable accross a variety of platforms, including mobile, not only due to a portable codebase, but also due to different interfaces for the various formfactors.
+
+Because no existing codebase fullfills those premises or easily allows to reach them, this project started.
