๐ŸŽ An early gift! Holochain 0.4.0 has been quietly released and is now our recommended version for general use. Holochain 0.3 (currently at 0.3.6) and its infrastructure are still supported and will get maintenance updates as needed, while Holochain 0.2 and its infrastructure are now retired.

๐Ÿค๐Ÿป The big news is that 0.4.0 comes with less โ€“ we've disabled unstable features by default, allowing more time for testing. This probably won't affect your app, but just in case, read the upgrade guide https://developer.holochain.org/resources/upgrade/upgrade-holochain-0.4/ . There are other breaking changes you'll want to know about too!

๐Ÿ— Along with 0.4.0 you'll see a bunch of small quality-of-life improvements in the scaffolding tool. Setting up your first DNA is streamlined, you can edit your entry type's fields before committing to code (super useful feature), and the templates are simpler. Try it over the holidays! https://developer.holochain.org/get-started/

Thank you for journeying with us in 2024. There have been a lot of changes for our organization and the Holochain project, and we deeply appreciate your support through it all. See you in 2025, where we'll keep sharing regular updates on our progress!
