Can we change the description of the UI/API?


* `UI`: Acts as the control center for Airbyte. From the UI, you can configure new integration connections. You can also track the different syncing jobs and view logs.
* `UI`: Airbyte's main control plane. From the UI, you can configure new integration connections. You can also track the different syncing jobs and view logs.

I would say the API is the main control plane, not the UI. The UI is just a window into it.

Ok, fair enough - control center and control plane feel the same to me (although I do understand they have different technical implications). How does Airbyte's main entrypoint to the control plane. sound? Otherwise I can just leave the wording as it was before.

FWIW I think our thinking has evolved since we wrote the initial wording. We initially thought the UI was the main entrypoint but since then we've seen lots of compelling API-first use cases. I would phrase it something like:

`UI`: An easy-to-use graphical interface for interacting with the Airbyte API.  
`API`: Airbyte's main control plane. All operations in Airbyte such as creating sources, destinations, connections, managing configurations, etc.. are configured and invoked from the API.
