Wappler 4 install clarification

[Antony]

Another question…

I’m on 3.9.7.

When I read the need to be on 3.9.9 to upgrade, is this literally the case or can I upgrade from 3.9.7?

So do I translate 3.9.9 to mean 3.9.x?

Does this mean I must open EVERY project I have (even those I have not touched in months) with 3.9.9 before installing Wappler 4?

No you don’t need to do that.

It is just only if you have some unsaved changes. If everything was already saved then you don’t need to do anything.

If you had 3.9.9 installed then the project list will be auto imported, otherwise you will just have to re-add manually your projects by using the “open existing project folder” option.

Just to be sure and in case that it’s needed: is it possible to go back to 3.9.9 without any problems?

Yes you can revert back to 3.9.9 - but will have to do a full new installation.

I was on 3.9.7 too Antony. Upgrade as normal then import your Projects. All works perfectly no issues (have Docker running before starting 4.0.0 to complete the System Check <---- Patrick solved this for me as was getting an issue with Scoop not recognising the Docker installation and prompting to install Docker Desktop).

We rely on Git for this. Any new changes just show up as uncommitted changes.

I essentially use Git as another backup method. I ought to make better use of it.

Also, about the old projects… Everything just broke & had to re-build it in 3.9.9.

I haven't quite had this situation, but have certainly had things break a few times. This is still a problem with Wappler - perhaps its biggest problem.
