How are these products versioned?

  • Appkit is versioned according to updates to the code base.
  • App Studio Enterprise versions are loosely tied to the version of the Appkit framework it includes. An update from 4.8.0 to 4.9.0 may not include any changes to App Studio Enterprise.

What about compatibility?

  • Only Appkit 4.6.0+ can be used with Fusion 5.
  • App Studio Enterprise can be used with any version of Fusion or Appkit.

Can these products be updated independently?

  • Appkit can be Upgrade Appkit in Existing Apps independently, assuming there are no version compatibility issues.
  • App Studio Enterprise is released when a new version of Appkit is released. As a result, App Studio Enterprise itself does not need to be updated. To move to the latest code base, simply update the Appkit version within the project.
