The Origin of Coda

Shishir Mehrotra discusses the origin of Coda, a project he has been thinking about for almost 20 years. He explains how Coda is born out of the observation that documents, not apps, run the world, and that these tools haven't fundamentally changed in over 40 years. By starting from scratch and focusing on building a new doc without worrying about backwards compatibility, Coda aims to revolutionize the way teams operate.
