A bit of light-hearted fun from the latest Synapse + Optic release. The "colorize" command lets you specify runtime colors for nodes which take precedence over Workspace color configs. This hilarious example uses part of the node hash as a random color value 😂🤩🌈

Why do Views and Layers matter for security teams?
Because not all collaboration should be fully visible.
They let teams:
🔹Work in parallel
🔹Restrict access to sensitive data
🔹Collaborate securely
