we said we'd be a bit quiet this month, just little update: ⚀ we're 3mo into a large app with One @zero__ms ⚀ hard to believe how far we've gotten this fast ⚀ starter kit based on it before summer ⚀ hard to explain how big a leap forward this will be

we set up some skills today it's comprehensive, covers basically every feature and pattern with backlinks to docs: github.com/onejs/skills

in today's release of One it's faster than TanStack

hello

the next gen one/zero/tamagui stack is really something else. our new chat app (started jan) has been flying. but it's also massive - more features than many mature companies, Linear-level polish. it's going into private beta this week. more on that soon. we also started on a new app for a client who raised $7M. we're **two** days in - and already have 20 screens in place, auth flows, great animations/themes/details, lots of native UI, ios web android working in dev prod, testing, ci/cd... basically an entire startup has come to life in a weekend. once we complete this project (goal is 1 month e2e into both app stores), we're going to immediately move towards releasing a bunch of things: - One 1.0 RC1, featuring "Metro mode" which makes adoption risk way lower. - Tamagui v2 should come out separately here soon - Free starter kit based on the stack - Takeout 2 - which so much better than v1 it's hard to compare, and will be actually powering multiple production apps. All Pro accounts will get it in beta form likely near end of October and then chat app will come EOY that's the update, and why i've been so quiet lately 🍻

Getting close to the perfect stack

We’re thrilled to welcome @natebirdman, founder of @tamagui_js and @one__js, to the Local-First Conf 2025 lineup! Nathan will make the case for simpler frameworks and better UX by showing how local-first flips the script on data management.

There is no path to One that does not involve going through Zero.

Who wants to help contribute better error overlays with OwnerStack?

it's kind of crazy that frameworks with millions of dollars poured into it yearly aren't that much better than ones with near zero budget

permissions in zero are so nice

🥧 🥧 Happy Pi Day – Zero 0.17 is Live! Two big features enabled by two tiny API changes (see attached videos): 1/ Background queries. Finally delivering one of Zero's earliest promises, you can now add a `ttl` to queries to make them run in the background. The query's data will be kept up-to-date, so if the same or similar query is reissued in the future, the results will return immediately – flicker-free. 2/ Structural schema versioning. Zero has always had robust, zero-downtime schema migrations. And the DX was OK – at least compared to the status quo for sync engines. But we realized we could do *way* better. The Zero client knows its schema. The Zero server knows its schema. We can use TS-style structural checking to determine if they are compatible. This leads to completely automated, configuration-free schema migrations that are still perfectly robust and zero-downtime. A bunch of other smaller features and improvements we also in this release including: * Permissions now scoped to "apps", which should enable previews * Initial replication 5x faster See the complete release notes at: zero.rocicorp.dev/docs/relea…

We're hiring someone very technical! Someone who can help us land hard improvements to compiler and core, and push @one__js forward. Send us your best.
