WeWeb - update on what we are working on at the moment

Announcements

Hello everyone! As promised, here is the bi-weekly update:

  1. Improving the quality of the AI-generated logic: we’ve revamped our internal agentic structure to make it more efficient and are now focused on getting Sonnet 3.7 to work well within the WeWeb context. We’ve made a lot of progress over the past 2 weeks, and the results are promising. We’re continuing to double down on this and hope to roll out a completely new and improved AI experience in about 3 weeks.

  2. Improving the quality of the AI-generated UI: the update is live. It’s a small improvement, but a pretty meaningful one. Sonnet 3.7 will bring a much bigger leap forward.

  3. Datagrid improvements: all previously mentioned improvements are now live. We have a few more in the works:

  1. We progressed on our long list of advanced components:
  • Skeleton Loader - in production
  • Currency input - in QA, should be live this week
  • A new, improved calendar - in QA, should be live this week
  • A new, improved file upload - in QA, should be live this week
  • A new, improved Kanban - in QA, should be live this week
  • Carousel / Image Slider - in QA, should be live this week
  • Breadcrumbs - in QA, should be live this week or the next
  • Gantt - in QA, should be live this week or the next
  • Timeline - in QA, should be live this week or the next
  • Chat - in QA, should be live this week or the next
  • AI chat - in QA, should be live this week or the next
  • Stepper - under development, should be live in 2/3 weeks
  • Tree View - under development, should be live in 2/3 weeks
  • OTP Input - under development, should be live in 2/3 weeks
  • Comments & Threads - we decided to postpone this one for now as the use case was not as obvious as we thought.

  1. Detaching modals from pages and making them accessible at project level: it still under development and should be in QA this week and in production in 2/3 weeks.

  2. New organization of global workflows and edge functions + revamp of the plugins panel: same as the improved modals, this is under development and should be in QA this week, so in production in 2/3 weeks.

  3. Vite setup to reduce the build time: this was longer than expected and more complex, but we did not give up! This will be in QA in 2 weeks and should be in production in 3 to 4 weeks.

  4. Icons improvements: we hadn’t originally planned on making so many updates, but managed to sneak them into the roadmap, as you’ve seen. And we have got a few more coming:

  • On upload, force the fill and stroke properties to "currentColor" (to inherit the color in the SVG) so that when choosing a color in the editor for an SVG you uploaded it will always work - should be in prod in 2 to 3 weeks
  • Ability to copy/paste a full configuration of an element to another element to facilitate the migration to new icons for existing projects. This will also be useful as a “quality of life improvement” feature - should be in prod in 2 to 3 weeks.
  • Improve the handling of full icon ZIP uploads (folders, ability to delete entire folders, etc.) - should be in prod in 3 to 4 weeks.

The product team is still mostly focused on what we shared two weeks ago, these are major features that take time to properly scope and qualify:

  • Environment management with Supabase.
  • Branching feature.
  • Figma integration.

As always, feel free to comment and add your feedback in this thread in case you feel we missed something important!
