01 – CUSTOM TABLES
Pull Up a Chair: The Tables
Private tables are where projects take shape. Create a table for your project, invite fellow Tavern members to collaborate, share ideas, and keep the conversation moving as your work progresses. Or browse the existing tables, pull up a chair, and discover a project looking for someone with your skills.
02 – PRIVATE ROOMS
The Backrooms: For Those Ready to Build
Beyond the main tavern lie The Backrooms—private, invite-only spaces built for serious, professional-level collaboration. Here, dedicated creators can assemble teams, develop projects, share resources, and work together away from the bustle of the public tavern. Backroom access also opens the doors to the Waypoint Tavern Library, a growing collection of training videos, project guides, tool tutorials, and instructional resources designed to help you sharpen your skills and take your projects from concept to completion.
