Version Control
Version Control in ToolJet helps you to maintain multiple versions of the application, do iterative development, and deploy updates systematically. It ensures stability, and allows seamless rollout of new features or fixes.
For example, to experiment a new feature, you can create a new version of the application and try it out, without disturbing the released application. And after through testing you can release this version. This minimizes downtime, and allows developers to experiment and debug the new feature without disrupting users.
Each version is isolated from the others and can have different environments, such as development, staging, or production. Check out the Multi-Environment guide for more information. Versions can also be used to rollback to a stable version if needed, checkout release and rollback guide for more information.
