Cache busting πŸ’₯

More and more Slater-powered Webflow projects are running in production! So, let's talk about what that means. Slater works a little differently in a production environment. Instead of serving a file from the Slater server, we serve a file from Amazon S3. The S3 file is extremely resilient, and by default, it is cached by the browser. When your site doesn't seem to be updated, even after publishing changes, it's likely a caching issue. Your browser is simply not getting the latest copy of the...

πŸ‘‹, We were excited to be invited to Webflow's livestream, Add AI to your Webflow builds with these Webflow apps. It did not go as planned. πŸ€¦β™‚οΈ Aron's project was deleted prior to the demo but also open in another tab. Although it appeared to still be functioning properly, the project files were inaccessible. You can see the breakdown here. (Get a free month subscription using the code "wipeout".) πŸ‘€ We are working on several tasks based on feedback from users like you. The minification of your...

πŸ‘‹, The idea of a community library has been part of Slater's vision from the start, but it took a couple of tries to get it right. The code is now written and we have moved our focus to populating the library with useful scripts. If you have a valuable script to contribute, please add it to your personal library and document it with Slater Documentation. We will review your scripts and reach out if your script is something we want to include. πŸ‘€ You have probably head about Devin, the first AI...

πŸ‘‹, We pushed up a handful of updates yesterday. Quality of life improvements, bug fixes, and more Slater scripts! Slater still works the same, but now you have more flexibility in how your JavaScript is loaded in your Webflow project. If the Slater Single Script is working for you, feel free to skip the details. The details: Slater has two types of projects, connected and unconnected, and manages two environments, staging and production. Sometimes you may need more control over the timing or...

πŸ€™, We are grateful to our new friends at Renflow Designs for conducting a Twitter poll this week. 93.8% prefer Slater as your primary Webflow Javascript environment.

This updated version includes the new Slater experience (with slightly less functionality due to the size limitations of Designer Apps)....

πŸ‘‹, ⚠️ This weekend, Slater experienced an outage. While we make every effort to ensure Slater's uninterrupted operation, occasional server issues may arise. But! The key takeaway from this weekend's incident is that the production scripts on your clients' websites remain unaffected even if a Slater outage occurs. Slater scripts are exceptionally resilient and you can trust Slater to provide Javascript functionality on your client websites. Our in-house Javascript and Surf guru, Witt,...

πŸ‘‹, Before Slater, we at Edgar Allan used Codesandbox. It's a incredible tool. Full stop. We invested in building Slater because the Codesandbox solution was a hack and we didn't feel comfortable shipping our clients' websites with a Codesandbox script. This week Codesandbox updated their pricing and broke a lot of Webflow projects. :( If this is you, crack open Slater again. If this is someone you know, forward this email to them. πŸ‘·πŸ»β™‚οΈ Product Updates We're adding polish to the new UI--a lot...
