I have been developing this application by myself. Application was built based on feedback given to me by my coworkers.
It took 3 years. Now application is complete.
I and my coworkers use this application every day in every project. Half a year ago I decided to publish this application in Tekla Warehouse. Today there are almost 400 downloads.
