People keep suggesting features for StackDAG, and it’s growing faster than I expected

It’s been four weeks since StackDAG launched into public beta, and the community keeps growing stronger.

Here’s what’s new in Week 4:

  • New Components: Over 50 new nodes added this week, ranging from CDN providers and Laravel-related tools, to Analytics services and more. Huge thanks to everyone who suggested these on Reddit, Discord, and through the feedback form. Keep them coming!
  • Tutorial Walkthrough: A new guided experience now shows up when you’re not signed in and visit the DAG page, making it easier for new users to get started.

Tutorial

  • Multi-Component Selection: You can now add multiple components at once when building your DAGs, which is a highly requested feature from the community.

  • Laravel Templates: Based on the official Laravel stack templates, now available under the experimentation section. Feedback is welcome on how to improve them.

UI & Performance Improvements:

  • Scaffolding effects added to DAG list pages (public DAGs, my DAGs, user profiles, etc).

Scaffold

  • Fresh new look and better mobile support for critical components. Feedback is welcome!

Mobile Support

  • Skeleton loading effects for a smoother experience.
  • Login & signup issues resolved, and authentication is seamless now.

Sneak Peek at What’s Next:

  • Annotations on DAGs (drawing), which will be helpful for presentations
  • AI-assisted DAG editing and stack suggestions.
  • Instructional guidance for connecting components together.
  • Long-term vision: an AI agent that can understand and shape full tech stacks through DAGs.

Join the Beta: https://stackdag.pages.dev

All beta accounts are marked as early testers and will get early access to upcoming premium features.

Thanks again for being part of StackDAG’s journey, and let’s make Week 5 even bigger.
