🥳 We're back! (sort of...)

If you've been wondering what happened to the Frankston Foundry community, we never really went away.

A bunch of us have found a new home at CodeCat, an awesome new coworking space on Young Street, Frankston.

Same energy. Better monitors.

Leon who runs the space is offering free trial passes to business owners and remote workers who want to check it out. Dual screens, fast internet, meeting rooms, even a podcast studio. No lock-in contracts.

If you used to work out of the Foundry, or you've just been grinding it out at the kitchen table and fancy some company, come say g'day.
