Get ready to be blown away by the new App Connect performance update! Reactive, smart client side data rendering has never been so fast!

It is a huge update, so to safely let you try it out, we are also introducing new Wappler extensions Beta channel! Now you can try all those great extension updates, without breaking your existing projects!
