When will Panda CSS reach a stable release?

[land-cap]

Panda CSS is probably the best thing that happened to CSS-in-JS since styled-components and it's great. I use it for side projects and love it but I'm curious to know when will it reach a stable 1.0 release. Right now it's hard to convince everyone to commit to using it in production given it's not stable yet... Am I right to assume after integrating it with Chakra it will become stable?

Thank you again for this great tool @segunadebayo and the whole team!

Thanks for your remark @land-cap.

We're pretty close to the v1.0. This is independent of the release of Chakra UI v3.

There are a few PRs (related to the studio and presets) left to land before a v1 is released. Most of the features we have in mind for Panda are already in.

Thank you for the quick reply. Looking forward to see studio! Have been searching a lot and havent found how to set it up yet. Stoked to finally see it🔥

Hi @segunadebayo!
I wanted to ask how close is the 1.0 release? 🙂
Will the API change much or would you say it's better not to use it in production code?
Thank you!

Hello @segunadebayo! Would you mind sharing an update on the Panda CSS 1.0 roadmap? We're actively using it at Zillow for our design system, and we've already deployed it on some production pages. Thanks!

v1 is going live next week or so.

Panda has been relatively stable for a while, and we're happy with it. We'll think through any tiny updates over the weekend.

@segunadebayo I looked into #3089 and think it's a pretty big change to how Panda generates the CSS. The team might want to review this issue and #3137 when considering 1.0 release.
