We have launched Supasaito Academy as an online learning platform for startups where they can learn to use NoCode for in-house development of websites and automated workflows to power up their marketing with technology.
We have also released over 100 video lessons inside of the Academy and got our first new members signing up for our courses.
We plan to release even more video courses in the upcoming weeks and provide better support to our customers.

We have launched an alpha version of a browser extension translating Webflow user interface in Japanese language - “Webflow Japanese Translations”.

The tool is free so go ahead and give it a try! You can see more information on our website.
