Envato Zoo launches!
You’ve probably noticed that Envato has kind of a thing for animals and all of our marketplaces have something to do with an animal habitat. Along with our animal habitat names we also like to pick a mascot animal that would typically reside in those habitats.
So, we thought, we should really have a home for all of our marketplace animals. A place for people to come and see them, and download cute pictures and wallpapers of them all – we’re pleased to introduce Envato Zoo!

Envato Devs Host Code Retreat
Envato is hosting a Code Retreat on August 27 at our Melbourne office. It will be a day of deliberate practice, a chance to focus on software development techniques without the distraction of having to deliver real software.
You’ll be working on a particular problem throughout the day (Conway’s Game of Life), in sessions of about 45 minutes. You’ll pair with somebody different in each session, and it’s up to each pair to decide what language they want to use. Sign up today!
