They're building for an identified market and they identified that market before they started building the tools they have done.<br /><br />Building something and then making it available to others on the chance they may want it is fine. Just don't expect this to instantly be a massive success or a strategy for lots of downloads.<br /><br /><br />Matt Laceyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11417850590999162080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33176002.post-27047484964051362162012-11-28T13:47:10.016+00:002012-11-28T13:47:10.016+00:00Tell that to Telerik, DevExpress, JetBrains etc. :...Tell that to Telerik, DevExpress, JetBrains etc. :P<br /><br />I'd agree about apps though.
