What's happening with Avo lately
Updates
Avo has allowed us to develop and release apps rapidly even with very few developers working on them. We can focus our efforts on domain logic and custom design where it really matters. Every other Rails CMS is difficult to style or scale or add custom fields, but Avo has been a dream throughout. It's been a game-changer for us.

Short Ruby Newsletter published it's 53rd edition
It's crazy to think that Short Ruby Newsletter was born just last year. The growth is impressive. Just as impressive as the value it brings.

Avo 3 public beta
Yes! You heard that right! Next week the public beta for Avo 3 will be available for everyone to try out.
The new version comes with quite a few new features like dynamic filters, resource scopes, the new def fields
API, the ability to hook in using plugins, new component override capabilites, and much, much, more.
The internals have been rebuilt and it's now leaner and cleaner.
While in the open beta phase, the annual prices will be discounted.
By popular request we are introducing a lifetime option for Avo 3. You will be able to purchase one license for one app and get updates forever. That's ideal for client work when you don't want to pass them a subscription.
We'll publsh more information as we get closer to the launch date.
That's it for today.
Thanks for being awesome!
Adrian and Paul
