Ecosystem public launch: Tokens + ESLint + Release Engine

Feb 2026 (weekly release)
Explore ecosystem

This release marks a major ecosystem milestone: PyColors is now a structured developer platform with public packages (UI, Tokens, ESLint) and a hardened weekly release engine. The focus shifts from “components” to “shipping infrastructure”.

New public packages

  • @pycolors/tokens published on npm: light/dark themes + semantic variables + Tailwind v4 bridge.
  • @pycolors/eslint-config v1.0.0 released: base, Next.js, and React internal flat configs (ESLint v9 ready).
  • Improved peer dependency clarity and ecosystem alignment across packages.

Release & distribution engine

  • Stabilized Changesets publish workflow.
  • Subtree sync strategy hardened (monorepo = source of truth, mirrors = distribution).
  • GitHub Releases automated for public packages.

Marketing alignment

  • Changelog and roadmap updated to reflect ecosystem positioning.
  • Clearer messaging: PyColors as a SaaS shipping platform (UI → Starter → Templates).
  • Weekly release cadence formalized as a trust-building mechanism.

Strategy Weekly releases build trust. Even when features are still in progress, we ship foundations and keep the roadmap explicit.

Starter foundations + release engine

Feb 2026 (weekly release)
View roadmap

This release focuses on foundations for the upcoming SaaS Starter (Free) and strengthening the shipping engine: discoverability, trust surface, and consistent ecosystem messaging.

Starters (in progress)

  • Started the SaaS Starter (Free): laying down production-ready foundations (structure, DX conventions, UI baseline).
  • Prepared ecosystem cross-links (UI ↔ Starters ↔ Templates) to support a cohesive builder workflow.
  • Defined starter release conventions: what is “shipped” vs “in progress” to keep public updates honest and predictable.

Discoverability & trust

  • Search & analytics baseline: ensure key pages are trackable and indexable (events, metadata hygiene).
  • Improved messaging across metadata to reflect PyColors as an ecosystem (not only a UI kit).
  • Roadmap / changelog copy aligned with weekly release cadence and commercial readiness.

Release engine

  • Standardized weekly release structure: highlights blocks, CTA focus, and a clearer “what’s next” narrative.
  • Small UI/UX polish passes to reduce friction and improve perceived quality.

Strategy Weekly releases build trust. Even when features are still in progress, we ship foundations and keep the roadmap explicit.
