What’s New

Spring Cleaning is done! Wappler just got optimized greatly with huge speed increase and lost a lot of weight in memory usage!

Now faster than ever by empowering more native technology and compilation in its core. Memory usage has been greatly reduced specially in the editor and during project switching.
So Wappler stability and duration is greatly improved!

Furthermore we have fixed many issues reported in our community and improved the general quality.

General

• Huge speed improvement in loading App Connect and Server Connect panels and editors! More power to native compiled code!
• Optimize Wappler’s memory usage and speed for Server Connect Editor in tabs

Project Manager

• On New Web Projects you can now choose for initial Development Environment. You can change that later in the general project settings
• Improved target options NodeJS Server Type switch between Own Server and the Wappler built-in Server. Now the previous server is stopped and the new one started. Also an additional system check is done if needed.
• Leave it also as main project option so you can change it later on and the targets will be reset to default.
• Optimized project options dialogs
• Improved Firebase hosting integration
