New storage model for apps in google ai studio will be a hit

Google AI Studio

Earlier today, I discovered that my AI studio interface has changed, not in design but in experience.

I saw “New storage model for apps” and I googled to know what it is. This feature is going to be a game changer for developers. It allows a developer to preview the creation in preview browser backed by real backend server (as against current mock server), even though datas might not be stored more than 48 hours but it is indeed a game changer.

Right now at the time of typing this message, the old interface has been restored, I believe safety fallback measure was applied.

While the new interface was active, I encountered an error that has never happened while the mock server was active. When the old interface was restored, that same error passed with no issues because the preview window on a mock server is usually forgiving.

I have clamored for this feature in my heart and soul because I always hit build issue when I deploy the codebase to Github because of code quality. Now I am certain that once all codes passes on a preview window live server, it means they are of quality and would pass build anywhere.

Looking forward to when to when Google would finish up the upgrade of Google AI studio.

Also, I like the fact that they are disconnecting AI studio from cloud console where necessary. Cloud Console is such a big headache to navigate around (for me).

Can’t wait to fully test my creation on a live server.

Cheers!

100% agree. The new (now rolled back) version is a step in the right direction, giving us an actual live server instead of the mock.

Too bad they rolled it out too soon, causing all this grief. Hopefully the people who lost their projects can now recover (save your projects locally as well folks!).

Definitely!

Hosting the app has always been a big issue for me because of code quality which is based on the fact that no live server was used in development. Now this is about to change.

I hope Google would endeavor to communicate on when we should be expecting the new features. It’s so exciting and we can’t wait :grinning_face:

Yea, communication is definitely lacking (or maybe I just don’t know where to look).

Would love to see a roadmap or intent - but maybe even that changes daily - things are moving fast these days.

And yes, I can’t wait to get rid of my hacky workaround for the NodeJS http/websocket imports in the sandbox :smiley:
