For over two years we've been discussing the possibility of an API refactor in #Laravel and/or a #NodeJS port. However either/both of these updates mean shifting our limited #opensource resources around β€” so we're asking for #community feedback to guide our Q1-2020 scheduling! πŸ—³οΈ

24% Laravel API Refactor
7% Both! Slower Timeline
16% Neither! Keep Current API
