01 / The platform at a glance
02 / Under the hood
Small details.
Big developer energy.
The changes worth understanding before you open your next pull request. Curated for people who build.
03 / In the loop
Beyond the release notes.
The wider view. Platform news, ecosystem signals, and the conversations to follow.
04 / From the workbench
Less theory.
More useful code.
Four small patterns to bring into your next development session. Copy, adapt, and validate in your sandbox.
Illustrative snippets, not compiler-tested or a complete extension. Adapt object IDs, dependencies and runtime; validate in your sandbox.
05 / The upgrade path
Move forward.
Keep your footing.
A calm, deliberate route from your current extension to your next release. No heroic production fixes required.
