selbst

(adverb)

Meanings

1.
-self
(German doesn't have a word like "myself". Instead, it stakes the normal pronouns and "selbst" is an extra word. So "myself" would be "ich selbst" or "mich selbst" or so on, depending on case.)
2.
even
(more fancy alternative for "sogar". Primarily used in writing, but I also use it in spoken German, usually in contexts of "even if A , then still no B".)

I really like the new interface. It is clear and concise and straight to the point.

Happy to hear that!!
I’m not 100% happy with it yet, but it’s slowly taking shape.

Also, we’ll start working on the “app” version next year. Should be quick!
