+Since this plugin was first released in 2012, it received some fantastic [contributions from the community](https://github.com/352Media/flexMenu/graphs/contributors) and [appeared on Tuts+](https://webdesign.tutsplus.com/tutorials/a-flexible-approach-to-responsive-navigation--webdesign-8397). Separately, Michael Scharnagl experimented with similar design patterns and coined the term "[Priority+ Pattern](https://justmarkup.com/articles/2012-06-19-responsive-multi-level-navigation/)" _five days_ after I [first released flexMenu](https://github.com/352Media/flexMenu/commit/c01e0365d9217b36748574d83f45de578b3527fd). There were probably other folks who were experimenting with this pattern before either of us were!
+
+Today, [several libraries](https://github.com/gijsroge/priority-navigation#alternatives) implement this design pattern in a modern way. They're awesome - so good that they've made flexMenu obselete! :smiley:
+
+Thank you to everyone who creates designs, articles, and tools for responsive navigation. Let's keep building cool stuff together! :rocket:
