| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Syntax today. We've got myself, CJ and Scott on the horn. We're talking about |
| 0:07.0 | Viet's second announcement. We had our earlier episode. We talked about VET Plus, their open source |
| 0:11.9 | tool. Another thing that they recently announced this thing called Void, which is both a deployment |
| 0:19.5 | platform as well as a VIT plugin that will handle all of your bindings |
| 0:26.0 | and whatnot. Basically, I said this and a lot of people got mad, but I said that this was like |
