    I built an app to stop that mini heart attack you get when you realize you’ve lost code. It's called Vibe Backup, and it's made just for us.

It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
