37. Wrap-up

38. “We started from developing custom applications and
then figured out that we needed an IDE to make our
work more efficient. A bundle of features, which would
be nice to have and which would help in our day-to-day
development activities, converted into The Welkin Suite
as it is now. We hope this will be a great service for the
community”
