|CoLab!| Version Control GUI for DAW's

CoLab

---

CoLab GUI, designed to test an implementation of version control for DAW's (Digital Audio Workstation's) using git, for tools like FL Studio which is what CoLab currently soley caters towards. I had the idea from my own experience using FL Studio and other creator's I know and thought that it would be cool to expirement with a prototype to simulate what it could look like
