🔮 Apollo Kotlin Roadmap

Last updated: 2024-02-22

For up to date release notes, refer to the project Changelog.

Please note: This is an approximation of larger effort work planned for the next 6 - 12 months. It does not cover all new functionality that will be added, and nothing here is set in stone. Also note that each of these releases, and several patch releases in-between, will include bug fixes (based on issue triaging) and community submitted PR's.

✋ Community feedback & prioritization

  • Please report feature requests or bugs as a new issue.
  • If you already see an issue that interests you please add a 👍 or a comment so we can measure community interest.

Version 3 releases

3.8 is the last planned minor release under version 3. All active feature development is now being done for the 4.0.0 release on the main branch. Version 3 is still actively maintained and we will continue to release 3.8.x patches on the release-3.x branch.

4.0

Approximate GA Date: February 2024 (GA)

Our next major release is currently in the beta stage. Expect new beta to be released as we make progress towards a GA release candidate. This major version removes some deprecated APIs but will otherwise contain mostly incremental changes and most of the API will stay compatible. We are hoping to do a GA release after Kotlin 2.0.0 is generally available.

Here's a high-level overview of the feature set:

Jetpack Compose extensions

This is currently available as an experimental feature. We will release a stable version after getting sufficient user feedback

Jetpack Compose is a declarative UI framework for building Android UIs written in Kotlin. We are experimenting with a few different approaches for supporting Compose in the Apollo Kotlin library. Our 3.8.0 release introduced an experimental API for use with Compose, please do try it out and give us feedback!

Cache improvements

Approximate Date: TBD

The declarative cache makes working with the cache and defining unique object ids easier. We also want to include helpers to handle with common cases like pagination, garbage collection and eviction. Follow #2331 for a high level overview. The current focus is on cache control and expiration. You can read more in the cache control design document.

Future feature releases

  • Annotation processing for custom scalars
  • Stable Jetpack Compose extensions - user feedback is critical here, please do try out the experimental extensions and let us know what's working and what could be improved!

release-2.x branch

release-2.x is the Apollo Android 2.x branch. Major security issues or fixes will get new releases.
