D&D’s virtual tabletop is off to a slow start, but designers say that’s very much the point
This is an addon to Foundry. Syncing to Beyond. From Beyond to Foundry is free. Although if you want to sync, it requires a Patreon. https://github.com/MrPrimate/ddb-importer

Paizo on Twitter: The 4th printing of the CRB, which was expected to last 8 months, has sold out in 2 weeks.
It's probably just been fixed- the guy that develops it seems absurdly active.

Save your D&DBeyond-Books as PDFs
It gives you whatever you've paid for on DDB. So if you only have the PHB, you only get the PHB backed up into Foundry for example. I'm not sure how it maps because I haven't inspected the code lol.
- Want props and $? Need stupid simple comprehensive guide for *Importing* and running Phandelver in Foundry.
- Using the "D&D Beyond Importer "Module by MrPrimate: Every "Vicious Weapon" on Foundry works WRONG

Stupid simple directions for going from vtt install to running Phandelver for 5?
Since WotC haven't licensed anything for Foundry, Foundry itself only contains the SRD material for 5E. To get LMoP into Foundry in the simplest way possible, you'll want to use something like the D&D Beyond Importer, a tutorial video for which is available here.

D&D Character Sync Extension
Beyond20 is an extension to sync between DDB and several other platform. It's open source. Why not create a pull request to add Harmless Key to the list of platforms that extension supports instead of creating a separate extension?

Assistance needed. Was going over session notes as a DM and saw these rolls from a player after the fact. Worried it might mean he is rigging his rolls. More details in the comments.
This is the PR which introduced the crit-flagging code for D&D Beyond Digital Dice which is what OP is seeing: https://github.com/kakaroto/Beyond20/issues/355

SendingStone—video conferencing meets virtual tabletop app—updates and requesting Early Access feedback [OC]
There's some tutorials on YouTube for how to use D&D Beyond (like this one). Beyond 20 has a website with more information here. Installing SendingStone's Beyond20 fork has instructions here. Finally there's a quick video demo-ing the integration in this pull request to Beyond20. Hope that helps!

Why are the Roll20 rolls sometimes displayed in a purple table instead of the nice output?
There have been a lot of character sheet updates on Roll20's side, so you'll need to update Beyond20. If the most recent update hasn't been pushed out yet, you'll need to manually update the most recent version by following the "Developer Mode Installation" instructions here.

What can Fantasy Grounds do that Foundry cannot?
Beyond20 (Official site) - this lets players roll on DNDBeyond but have it show up in Foundry.

Best Beyond20 Setup in FVTT?
So you can't currently get the aoe templates and other features from dndB rolls from beyond20. I believe it is because the way beyond20 currently works is that it doesn't use foundry's native rolls. I think it rolls outside and just sends the result and makes a card for it. During that D20 live stream module making event Kakaroto was working on using native foundry rolls and I've seen mention of parsing the range and aoe data of spells so that templates could be used. I think it is incoming in a future beyond20 update, but whether that would lead to using animations or other automation features I don't have any clue. https://github.com/kakaroto/Beyond20/issues/218
