User reviews
This is a game changer for productivity. I have found one bug, when viewing a Portal Catalog Item, the characters "> are appended to the ends of all inputs. It appears to a viewer that an additional HTML closing bracket has been added to the widget at each input (reference fields, string inputs.. ect).
