As our marketing team grew from 1 to 4, we also grew our social media, having fun with creating daily InstaStories or updating our Facebook page. We also focused on our blog, which rose by over 40% comparing to last year! It’s appreciated by well-known media platforms like Android Weekly, Android Dev Digest, The Week in Swift, Swift Weekly, Hacker News and more! Here are the best posts:
