πŸ”§ Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. A unified dashboard that integrates time tracking directly with project-specific budget caps.
  2. A centralized freelancer CRM that stores historical rates, skills, and project notes to streamline onboarding.
  3. A shared availability calendar tool that syncs across team members to eliminate scheduling back-and-forth.
