T3Terminal was first introduced on 17th October 2019 at The TYPO3 Conference, The Hague, Netherlands. The founding members Nitin Chauhan and Sanjay Chauhan were excited to share the idea of the first-ever TYPO3 marketplace to the TYPO3 world.
Celebrations at Our Office
We decorated our office and the plan was to celebrate this special occasion at one of the finest restaurants in Bhavnagar, The Basil Park. After completing our work at around 7 PM, we were excited to celebrate and just have fun and eat a lot of good food.
