    Thanks for the note on the typo, I've fixed it. I'm happy to add other auth providers to our docs. Shoot me a note (trey@) with the instructions and I'll add it in. Many developers…

    We have a Developer plan that's free up to 10 users. Our Startup tier ($50/month) is intended for early stage projects without significant funding. If you have a project that can't…

    We've had a handful of requests for native app support, so it's definitely something we'd like to do eventually, although we're more likely to start with Electron since it will be …
