I had three Glitch sandpit websites for creative coding. I’m spinning up a blog just now and it’s fairly easy. Val town seems like a new home for a glitch users. 😻
Val Town has always been inspired by @glitch.com - they paved the way for zero-config instantly-edited websites. It's a bummer that what brought so many people joy and was a great community for diverse communities is coming to an end
So: where does Val Town fit into this?
