Project IDX now comes with an Android Emulator and an iOS Simulator right in the browser.

You can now develop, debug, and test Flutter apps on real virtual devices side-by-side.

All the fun isn't just for Flutter devs. Web devs can use the iOS Simulator to test web apps with live reload support.

Say hello to our new template gallery designed for exploration and customization. Want to get started with Tailwind and Astro? We got checkboxes for that.

There are so many templates to choose with more coming soon. Stay tuned.

Shoutout to @astrodotbuild for being awesome.

Docker support has been one of the top early feature requests from IDX users. We're happy to say that now a single line of config will set up the Docker daemon and Docker CLI.

If you're a Docker user, let me know, we'd love for you to give this a spin.

One of the biggest requests we've received since launching is AI features in more countries. Well, we just launched IDX's AI features in 15 more!

Looking to use a CLI tool but you haven't installed it yet? No worries. IDX will detect uninstalled tools and let you install them on the fly.

Oh and I love the backend ports UI. We keep track of the ports you spin up with buttons to open them in a new tab.

We're so excited with everything we've landed and we have so much planned for this year. If you're an IDX user or you want to be one, let me know. We'd love to hear your feedback.

Happy hacking everyone.
