That latter take-away is absolutely true! Addressing that consideration is a major focus of the web-based tool, which will become the product entry point for a huge percentage of users. Armed with an understanding of the basics and having seen how existing content "fits" into Realm Works, the "development tool" version of the product (i.e. desktop) will become vastly more accessible to new users. And then we can look at ways to refine the UI on the desktop once the remaining high-demand features get into place.

Note: We've also been making some steady headway on general refinement and enhancements to overall product usability. Yes, we have a long ways to go, but progress HAS been made on that front.
