Changelog

What’s new in CodeForge AI

Every release, every fix, every improvement — documented here.

v1.6.0

LatestJune 23, 2026

New

3
  • Community hub at /community — one place for the forum, discussions and leaderboard, with live member & discussion counts, recent threads and a top-members list
  • Horizontal feature slider on the landing page — swipe or click-and-drag through highlights, with a live social-share-card preview embedded in the bento
  • Mobile bottom navigation — Dashboard, Problems, Challenges, Compiler and a More menu (Roadmaps, Contests) for quick thumb access

Improved

4
  • Mobile-friendly landing page — eliminated horizontal overflow from 320px up, full-width hero CTAs, a more compact hero, and tighter section spacing on phones
  • Redesigned changelog to match the brand theme — card-based releases, blue accent, and clearer New / Improved / Fixed sections
  • Hidden the scrollbar on the feature slider for a cleaner look
  • Leaderboard now uses a medal icon to make room for the new Community entry

Fixed

2
  • Mobile More menu opening in the top-left corner instead of above the nav bar (invalid CSS calc dropped the positioning)
  • Hero content getting clipped on narrow phones because the grid column didn't shrink to the viewport

v1.5.0

StableJune 23, 2026

New

2
  • Online Compiler — a standalone, blank-canvas editor at /compiler that runs code in any of 12 languages with custom stdin, real stdout/stderr and runtime + memory stats. No problem or test cases required
  • Compiler is now in the main navigation and surfaced across the landing page (hero, a dedicated feature highlight with a live run preview, and the FAQ)

Improved

4
  • New fire app icon — refreshed favicon, PWA icons (192/512 + maskable) and Apple touch icon on the brand-blue mark
  • Refreshed social share cards — Open Graph and Twitter images now use the new icon and lead with the instant compiler
  • Landing language strip now shows real brand logos (JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, Java, C, C++, C#, Go, PHP, Rust, Kotlin, Swift) instead of two-letter abbreviations
  • Project-wide icon system migrated to Font Awesome for a consistent, crisp icon set across every page

v1.4.0

StableJune 22, 2025

New

2
  • Brand-new landing page — layered product mockups, animated accent cards, a bento feature grid with live UI previews, and an AI chat preview
  • Light / dark theme toggle now everywhere the new design reaches

Improved

3
  • Full visual redesign on the Geist design system — neutral surfaces, blue focus rings, refined typography, tighter radii, and consistent spacing across every page
  • New blue app icon, favicon and PWA icons replacing the orange mark
  • Cleaner auth screens and a redesigned beta/join page

Fixed

1
  • Removed every leftover orange accent across the app in favor of the new blue/amber palette

v1.3.0

StableJune 21, 2025

New

6
  • Installable app (PWA) — add CodeForge AI to your desktop or mobile home screen, with app icons and an offline fallback page
  • PostHog product analytics — pageviews, events, and session insights
  • PostHog error tracking — client and server-side exceptions are captured automatically
  • PostHog server-side logs via OpenTelemetry
  • Vercel Speed Insights — real-user performance metrics
  • Light / dark theme toggle in the landing page header

Improved

2
  • Much faster landing page — the hero now paints immediately instead of waiting for animations to load, fixing slow First/Largest Contentful Paint
  • Hardened Content-Security-Policy to safely allow analytics, the Monaco editor CDN, and session replay

Fixed

2
  • Code editor (Monaco) failing to load in production due to a Content-Security-Policy block
  • Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity beacons blocked by Content-Security-Policy

v1.2.0

StableJune 18, 2025

New

2
  • GitHub authentication — sign in with your GitHub account; the button appears automatically once OAuth is configured
  • Feedback now opens a GitHub issue — submissions from /feedback create a labelled issue in the repository, with email kept as a fallback

v1.1.1

StableJune 18, 2025

Improved

3
  • Forgot-password now fails gracefully — if the email can't be sent it returns a clear message and logs the real reason instead of an opaque 500 error
  • Site URL for SEO, robots.txt, and sitemap.xml now resolves correctly in production instead of pointing at localhost
  • Rewrote the README with a modern layout, the full feature set, the Setups Works logo, and a release history

Fixed

2
  • Production build no longer crashes while prerendering /robots.txt and /sitemap.xml when the database is unreachable — both routes now render dynamically at request time
  • Site config loading is resilient to a missing database connection and falls back to environment configuration

v1.1.0

StableJune 17, 2025

New

9
  • Admin Settings panel — configure SEO, Analytics, Email, AI, Code Runner, Database, Cache, OAuth, and Payments from the UI without touching .env files
  • Google Analytics (GA4) integration — Measurement ID configurable from admin
  • Microsoft Clarity integration — project ID configurable from admin
  • Google Search Console verification meta tag — set verification code from admin

  • Shared header + footer across all info pages (Terms, Privacy, Changelog, Feedback)
  • GitHub repository link in footer, replacing X and YouTube icons
  • Sitemap at /sitemap.xml — auto-generated with all static routes + every problem slug
  • Robots.txt at /robots.txt — blocks admin/dashboard/API from indexing

Improved

4
  • Advanced SEO: full Open Graph, Twitter Card, canonical URL, robots directives, and JSON-LD structured data (WebSite + Organization schema) on every page
  • SEO metadata now reads from Admin Settings DB with env var fallback — change site name, description, keywords, OG image without a redeploy
  • Test Connection buttons in admin for every service: SMTP (sends real email), Groq, MongoDB, Redis, Judge0, Piston, Paiza, Razorpay
  • Footer Legal column now includes Feedback link

Fixed

3
  • Build errors: unused lucide imports, unescaped JSX entities in Terms/Privacy pages
  • Login Internal Server Error — rememberMe field caused NextAuth authorize() to always fail when schema required boolean
  • Zod v4 literal errorMap renamed to message

v1.0.1

SecurityJune 17, 2025

Improved

10
  • Content-Security-Policy header added — restricts script/style/img/connect sources, blocks frame-ancestors, disallows object-src hijacking
  • Strict-Transport-Security (HSTS) — 2-year max-age with includeSubDomains and preload
  • X-Frame-Options upgraded to DENY (was SAMEORIGIN)
  • Auth cookies: explicit httpOnly, secure, sameSite=lax; __Secure-/__Host- prefixes in production
  • JWT session lifetime reduced from 30 days to 7 days
  • CORS origin guard on all mutating API requests (POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE)
  • NoSQL regex injection fix: all $regex search queries now escape metacharacters
