Very nice add gentlemen!

But the updates Patrick releases here will still have to be downloaded and replaced manually or the beta channel fetches its files over internet?
The beta channel have now the latest versions, including more extensions than just the app connect core.
So use it for testing now. Patrick might post some additional updates if needed later on.
Soon we will indeed also allow inline extensions update for both stable and beta channels. So you will be able to update the used extensions on the fly without the need to update the whole Wappler.

That sounds like a nice plan. Will they be retrieved from a private repo? Just wondering how you will architect this.
Also, this is a first step for custom extensions remote usage right? 
The official stable and beta channel extensions will be fetched from our own cdn, the third party will be fetched directly from github once installed. That is the plan but we are still standardizing and you will be the first to try it out

Would you know what make great blog posts(if you found the time that is)?
Engineering posts. Development, testing, builds, deployment, infra, etc
Thought process, methodologies…
Refactoring the frontend to latest ES niceties.
Yes that will be nice - unfortunately we have to deliver results and don’t have much time to do a “making of” - if we had a few more marketing people, then we could do it - but it is hard to find good reliable people these days.

We can discuss salary over a beer if you want.
J/K yeah it was only wishful thinking and I still prefer a product oriented team

@George Are these files from the beta channel process? They popped up in my commit, so just wondering if I should care about them, or ignore.
No those temp files aren’t ours.
Most of my app connect “work” is done by .where() functions… are these speeded up very much? 
The where functions are not updated, but expressions are being parsed less so they will be called less times which should help speed up.
There is a new update available, you can get the update by downloading the file from the topic again.
Hi @patrick,
Just had a chance to try the beta channel on a NodeJS project and found that the browser component isn’t updated on internal links:
Hi @patrick,
Just tried an old PHP project with the beta channel and API files that work in stable are producing the following error on Beta:
Full trace:

I believe that I fixed that bug, please test with this version:
SqlBuilder.zip (3.0 KB) Unzip to dmxConnectLib/lib/db.
Sorry @patrick. I’ve just replaced that file and redeployed (using local docker target) but get the same error message
Please send that specific server action file that is generating the error in a private message to me.
Hey @patrick,
Just a quick nudge on this one (browser component not updating for internal links)… still an issue in 4.7.2
