How scary is moving from 2019 R1.1 to the 2021 R1

To answer specifics:

  1. Is Web 2.0 stable yet?
    I would say yes, though there are things you’ll miss from Web 1.0 that require additional work if you absolutely depend on them.
  2. I saw some nasty things about connection losses that do not come back again.
    I’ve previously posted code to handle page reloading when the connection has been lost, and Sessions are handled a bit differently in Web 2.0. You can read more about that here: https://forum.xojo.com/t/session-interrupt-message/64489
  3. What other issues remain that are show stoppers?
    This will be subjective not only depending on the developer, but the project. I’d suggest you browse through Feedback and look for things that you might encounter which are unresolved.
  4. Would it be better to wait for another 6 months or more before moving in this direction?
    As I said before, I dove in early, but it’s nothing for me to throw together some JavaScript if I need to, or I may not run in to some issues because I use my GraffitiSuite components.

Hope that helps!
