Catching up: one platform, Studio, and a new website

It's been quiet on this page since early 2024, but not in the code. Here's what has happened since:

  • One repository. The language, the core Java library, the Web Service, the example scripts and everything else now live together in dialoguebranch/platform, and are versioned and released together.
  • Dialogue Branch Studio. The Web Client from the v1.2.0 post grew into Studio: a web app where you edit dialogues as a graph of nodes, play them through, translate them, and publish them when they're ready, with drafts kept apart from what your users see (about Studio).
  • A JavaScript client on npm. @dialoguebranch/client-js lets your own app play dialogues from a Web Service, and is published with every release (connecting your app).
  • New version numbers. Because the platform is still finding its final shape, its versions were reset to 0.x in September 2026, to say so honestly; the old 1.x release tags were renumbered with them. Full stability promises start at 1.0. Releases now come every few weeks; the latest is v0.9.2.
  • A new website and documentation. You're looking at it: this website was rebuilt, and the Documentation Hub now lives right here on it, generated from the platform's own repository.
