 ### Why we made this
 
+Thanks to [Mahmoud](https://twitter.com/mahmoudimus) from [Balanced](https://github.com/balanced) for the inspiration to be more open.
 
-We love [Parse](http://parse.com), Backbone.js and AngularJS. We hate servers.
+-------
 
-Whilst building [BRANDiD](http://www.getbrandid.com) we developed some best practices around this stack, so we decided to open source it here. We even talked about it on the [Parse Blog](http://blog.parse.com).
