At last, today is the day. I am immensely proud to announce that JavaScript for Everyone is here.
Tell a friend, tell a Slack channel — write it on a slip of paper, fold it once, and slide it across your boss' desk without breaking eye contact. _It's time to get weird._

Oops, haven't been on Blue Sky for a while, but also here if you need help migrating to Netlify.
I hope people who know me have always known this, but I'll say it to be clear: If anyone ever needs help migrating a project to Netlify, I'm always willing to get you help if the standard steps of: connect the repo, update the env vars, change the DNS is not working. (This works for 90% of users.)
