Quasar v1.0 - Feature freeze in effect for v0.17
Hi All Quasarians,
It's been a long, winding road up until this point, but I'm finally working with the team on a solid Quasar v1.0, after which there will be no further breaking changes.
To do this, I’ve decided to feature-freeze v0.17 in order to fully focus on v1.0. This means that v0.17 is the last pre 1.0 release - and there will only be fixes merged and no new features. The only exception to this is to honour agreements with partners or main sponsors who require the integration of critical functionality or features.
When 1.0 lands, the Quasar you know and love will have been polished to a mirror’s sheen. The UI design will be perfect - and if you think Quasar's rendering speed is fast today, you will be glad to know that all of its components will be ruthlessly curated for the best performance possible, the most logical ease of use and the smallest footprint. Furthermore, all of the pain points (no matter how trivial) are being addressed and will be resolved.
The documentation website is also being rebuilt using Quasar SSR, where you'll be able to see live examples and also the source code for them in one place, optionally playing with the example in Codepen - just by clicking on a button.
You can expect more announcements on v1.0 as we inch closer to the release. The plan is to publish it as soon as possible, but without affecting the quality -- we want you to rest easy in the knowledge that everything is perfect and you can trust Quasar 100%. That said, it seems like the stars are aligning for a release candidate late this year.
This manages to be both a brief and huge announcement.
I would, however, caution against promising perfection. Awesomeness? Sure. But perfection is usually more of a goal than a destination.

@didic - perfect means without flaw, like the C-note of a tuning fork or the sound of two leaded-crystal champagne flutes "prosting" each other. The amount of attention to detail and craftsmanship that is going into this release sets the bar. We won't release 1.0 until it meets this standard - even if we have to publish dozens and dozens of release candidates on the way.
And this is why we are using this kind of "confident" language:

"This attitude gives me a great confidence in the product and it’s creator. Thank you Razvan!!!"
Thank you for your review, @didic!
So far this week you've reviewed 21 contributions. Keep up the good work!
This is so super exciting. For those of you who don't know Razvan, this is a huge step. After over two years of development, finally being at a point where it even possible to say 1.0 is just utterly amazing!!!
