Also, sorry for the terrible website. Web design is not my forte, I'm an app guy, and this was the quickest thing I could hack together in a couple days. Also I'm aware of the issues with the video demo, I'm uploading the file to YouTube so it should be fixed soon!

Nothing terrible about the website, in my opinion. It gets the job done without getting in your way. And you can always improve based on experience and feedback.

Things I noticed right a way:

- The logo and the title font. There's nothing wrong about them, but they don't reflect much about the application - Scrolling, there are a few elements that appear over the header bar

This site is great. It's clean, easy to read, and looks professional.

It's hard for me to evaluate how useful this would be to my workflow without seeing the API, and it looks like I have to actually run the app to do that. It might be worth putting a copy on the website.

Thank you for the advice, you're the second person to bring that up, and it seems like a fine idea, so I will do that this morning :)

[UPDATE] I have added the full and complete documentation to the website, which I hope will help you decide whether you'd like to try Autumn!

Chrome throws up a warning on download. Autumn.zip is not commonly downloaded and may be dangerous. Discard.

Whoa I got that too! I usually use Safari or Firefox (Google creeps me out) but I have tested the whole site in all three browsers, except this one button in Chrome I guess :D I'll check it out, thank you!

> Uncommonly downloaded is applied to any download that is new or has been modified/updated until Google has a chance to examine the download using multiple data centers. Once the download has been examined enough times, the warning will be removed.

So apparently we just have to wait until Google's servers decide my app isn't dangerous. Ironic considering I paid the $100 for Apple to notarize the app through Developer ID to remove that same warning from macOS when you first launch the app!
