Like last year, I'll be keeping an eye out for fun new things we've released in Designer in the past few releases that help speed up time to AoC solve... would love to hear if others find new options, functions, and features helpful too!! So far, I'm once again loving the ability to set up an AoC-specific Custom Workflow Template to get a quick start each day, and loving the GetPart function for parsing starting data in a Formula! ❤️

 

Happy AOC solving!!

Cheers!

A lovely challenge to kick things off with! Nice and quick addition to go from part 1 > part 2.
