It looks great, but its pretty cost-prohibitive.
After all the problems with Coda 2, I'm hesitant to fork out money up front for something from Panic that looks fancy, but I have no idea how reliably it performs.

I need to track a lot of metrics. Very few of them have been covered by Panic. I'm happy to pay a bit for good design, but I don't feel like forking over cash on the promise that it "might" cover my use case.
* RSS
* CSV
* JSON
* HTML <table> which the app formats to look nice
* Raw HTML which the app does zero formatting of, and they provide a PDF with the information necessary to make it look thematically appropriate (e.g. correct fonts, colors, etc).
The JSON/CSV can be displayed as a Graph, and CSV/HTML <table> can be displayed as a Table.
If you later need integrate data from applications that ducksboard supports, surely it's "cheaper" pay for you ;)
It could be really useful, but in the end its still just a collection of stuff you can find somewhere else. You have to consciously open it every time you want to use it, as opposed to Mission Control in OS X where you can just swipe left and see your widgets. Not knocking the usability of it, just making an observation
Ironically, my roommate actually regularly pays $8 + tip to get delivery McDonalds (via Postmates Get It Now).
And the reason is Code 2. For those of you who "had" Coda 2 you know exactly what I am talking about.
