Changelog
Always shipping.
Always listening.
Markus is improved continuously. We ship small, useful updates often — and we read every piece of feedback that comes in. The goal is simple: make Markus a tool that genuinely helps developers in their daily work.
If something's missing, broken, or could be sharper, we want to hear it. Feature requests, bug reports, rough edges, half-formed ideas — all of it shapes what we build next. Don't hesitate to reach out at support@getmarkus.app.
