7 hours ago

Silex v3.7.0 is now available.

This release contains important product updates, mainly focused on templates and CMS integrations

v3.7.0 marks an important step toward a more production-ready and template-driven Silex. Templates are an important steps:

  • no more blanck page syndrom
  • supports a new, community-funded model to sustain template and styling development, which is not covered by Internet 2000 as the rest of the dev has been

Highlights

Templates & Project Duplication

Silex now offers a complete workflow around templates and project reuse.

  • A site can now be duplicated
  • Duplicating a site creates a new project with:
    • the same pages
    • the same styles
    • the same CMS connections
  • This makes it possible to:
    • start a new project from an existing site
    • use templates as real production starters

Recent fixes also improved the template onboarding experience:

  • Fixed first publish failing on newly forked templates
  • Fixed incorrect redirect when forking a template
  • Improved the overall fork → build → publish workflow

This is especially important with the ongoing Silex templates crowdfunding and the growing number of template forks.


CMS Backends (Backend Types)

Silex now supports multiple CMS backend types:

  • Strapi
  • Supabase
  • WordPress
  • Generic GraphQL

Backend types improve how data is exposed in the editor:

  • Only relevant fields are shown in expressions
  • Backend-specific properties are highlighted
  • Default settings are provided per backend type
  • Backend settings can be reset to defaults

This makes CMS integrations clearer, safer, and more predictable.


Expressions & Filters

Several improvements and fixes in the expressions editor:

  • Fixed LiquidJS date filter errors
  • Fixed sorting issues in state lists
  • Fixed Chrome UI issues in expression completion
  • Added keyboard navigation between static and dynamic values
  • Fixed expression popin positioning
  • Fixed clear button not working in some cases

Overall, expressions are now more stable and easier to use in real projects.


Styling & Misc

  • Added support for modern CSS units: dvh, dvw, cq*
  • Removed invalid CSS value object-fit: auto
  • Fixed scroll issues in settings dialogs

Platform & Desktop

Internal updates across the Silex ecosystem:

  • silex-dashboard
  • silex-desktop
  • silex-platform
  • silex-plugin-starter
  • silex-puter

These updates mainly improve stability and keep all components aligned.


Why this release matters

v3.7.0 is not just a technical release.
It establishes Silex as:

  • a template-first website builder
  • a CMS-agnostic platform
  • a tool ready for real production workflows

It also closes the loop between:
templates → forking → CMS → publishing → reuse.
