Very cool project, congrats on the launch!

Just some thoughts and findings:

- After creating one theme, the plus-button on the dashboard page keeps loading forever after clicking it. The error in the console seems to indicate I have to upgrade to create another theme, but some kind of message would be nice.

- I feel like the editor really needs some kind of undo functionality. It's a bit frustrating/risky to experiment with the settings after you have found a combination you like.

- It would be cool if I could change the text/language in the preview. I get this might be a bit much, so providing more examples in a dropdown of some sort could be an alternative. E.g. I would like the see how a vue or svelte component would look like. Also a terminal preview would be nice. IMO all this becomes even more important (or necessary) when you consider that people would need to pay $6 to actually see how the theme looks for their use cases.

- I feel like letting people download one theme (maybe limited to a few apps) for free would lower the hurdle to get them to pay for it. Maybe that's not a concern and people don't mind, but it would definitely convince me.

Hope there's something useful in there.

Really cool product and definitely something I would use regularly after trying basically 99% of all themes out there and even creating my own.

Best of luck to you!
