January 2026 Release
Better Studio, faster performance, easier testing
We rebuilt parts of the platform to make your daily work smoother.
Studio Redesign
The old Studio worked, but it was clunky. Too many clicks, confusing flows, unclear hierarchy.
We fixed that.
Island Design
Everything now centers around your block hierarchy. Cleaner visuals, less noise, easier to scan.
Complex layouts are simpler to read. Adding blocks takes fewer steps.
Auto-Save + Undo/Redo
No more manual saving. Changes save automatically.
And yes, undo/redo is finally here. change freely, roll back when needed.
Design & Actions Split
When you select a block, you get two tabs:
- Design – layout and styling
- Actions – interactions and behavior
Keeps things organized. Makes wiring up behaviors way easier.
Performance Boost
We optimized the Core SDK and compiler. Content-heavy screens now scroll 30-70% smoother.
No code changes needed. Just rebuild with the new compiler and you're done.
Preview Kit
New tool for testing screens without redeploying.
Shake to launch – shake your device to open Preview Kit, tweak conditions, preview changes.
Perfect for QA and internal testing. Doesn't work in production builds (intentionally).
Setup
val previewKit = PreviewKit.Builder()
.launchOnShake()
.build()
NativeblocksManager.getInstance().wandKit(previewKit)
let previewKit = PreviewKit.Builder()
.launchOnShake()
.build()
NativeblocksManager.getInstance().wandKit(previewKit)
