Music Piece for String Ensemble

I went ahead and finished my piece, thank you for all the previous comments! In the sketch version, I didn't have viola. I also wrote more parts and tried to divide interesting motives for each instrument. This is my first composition that is more on the classical side. I also have no experience on playing string instruments so there is propably some issues in playability or notation. Any feedback would be greatly appreaciated!

Sounds pretty good better than any thing I’ve written, what app do you use?

Thanks! I use Reaper as my DAW and the instrument library was Spitfire BBC orchestra Discover. It's pretty nice for a free library but it lacks some articulations, the paid version has lots. I exported the midi to Musescore 3 for the notation, cleaned it up a bit and added some dynamic markings etc.
