In the last few weeks, we’ve released single-file GitHub pull requests, machine sorting, and many other improvements and bug fixes.

You use XState in your codebase, and you want to make a change to a state machine. You don’t want to touch any code but want to make a pull request back to GitHub. Our single file import feature lets you do it all in the browser.

Embedding Figma frames has arrived in Stately Studio! We’ve also made more improvements and squashed some bugs. And have you tried Stately Agent yet?

This week, the headline is Stately Inspector! But we’ve also made some improvements and fixed a few bugs in Stately Studio.

We’ve had a busy start to 2024 with the release of GitHub Sync, sources, and draft projects. We’ve also made plenty of improvements and fixed a few bugs.

It’s the end of 2023, and we have a few more updates to share with you before the year ends.

This week has seen us introduce some of our biggest features yet and plenty of small updates to improve your Stately experience. Do you want to learn more about our vision for this release? Find out more in David’s latest blog post on Stately Studio 2.0.

It’s been about a year since we’ve released Stately Studio 1.0, and a lot has happened. Stately Studio is essentially a visual software modeling tool that strives to make it easy to create, manage, and use state machines, no matter how complex they may get. Primarily, it served as a powerful set of devtools for XState (an open-source library for creating state machines, statecharts and actors in JavaScript and TypeScript). You could import XState code to a state diagram, modify it visually in an intuitive drag-and-drop canvas, and export to XState. Eventually, we added more export options: JSON, Markdown, Mermaid diagrams, and stories.

But Stately Studio has bigger ambitions than just being a suite of devtools for XState. We’ve frequently heard that these state diagrams are an important source of truth for critical app logic, serving as documentation for the entire team that stays up-to-date with your code. But a reliable source of truth for app logic is a need for all apps, not just those that use state machines directly.

That’s why we’re so excited to release Stately Studio 2.0, which aims to meet developers where they are, no matter which libraries, frameworks, or even languages they use. There are many benefits to modeling app logic with state diagrams and the actor model, and we want to enable developers to take advantage of those benefits to build more robust, feature-rich, and maintainable app logic faster.

The Stately team is very excited to announce a new feature we’ve been working on for quite some time! Join us in welcoming Stately Sky to the Studio. Lovingly built with PartyKit, Sky is our new serverless platform for running workflows within the Studio. With Sky, users may now run their statecharts as live machines in minutes, complete with XState v5 actors and multiplayer support.

It’s been a while since our last changelog update, so let’s get right to it!
