<p>Dear midPoint community,</p>
<p> MidPoint Studio 4.3 has been released. It is the first
officially-supported version of <a
href="https://docs.evolveum.com/midpoint/tools/studio/">MidPoint
Studio</a>, an integrated development environment (IDE) for
MidPoint.<span id="more-7467"></span></p>
<p> MidPoint is a comprehensive identity management <i>platform</i>.
Identity management engineers know very well that there are
complexities hidden around every corner of identity management
world. Therefore midPoint has to be very flexible and customizable
platform. This is one of the most obvious benefits of midPoint.<br>
However, it has its cost. Maintenance of midPoint configuration
can be quite challenging.</p>
<p> That is where MidPoint Studio comes to the rescue. Studio is an
integrated development environment (IDE), designed to create and
maintain midPoint configurations.<br>
Studio is built on top of <a
href="https://www.jetbrains.com/opensource/idea/">IntelliJ open
source platform</a>, which is a popular IDE platform for
software developers. The platform provides features such as syntax
highlight and code completion almost out of the box.</p>
<p> We have released <a
href="https://docs.evolveum.com/midpoint/tools/studio/">MidPoint
Studio 4.3</a>. This is a second stable release of Studio.
However, it is the first release that gets official support from
Evolveum. MidPoint Studio is now official part of <a
href="https://evolveum.com/services/">midPoint subscriptions</a>.
If you are midPoint subscriber, we will fix bugs in Studio for
you, in pretty much the same way as we fix midPoint bugs. Studio
is official now, and it is here to stay.</p>
<p> We would like to thank everybody that provided feedback on early
versions of Studio. That was a great motivation to get to this
point. Even though Studio is now stable and official, we are more
than aware that there are always some things to improve. Therefore
we would still like to ask the community for feedback, bugreports
and improvement ideas for Studio. <a
href="https://docs.evolveum.com/community/mailing-lists/">MidPoint
mailing list</a> is an ideal place for the discussions. And of
course, we will be more than happy to accept any contributions!</p>
<p> Thank you. And godspeed to your fingers, working on your
configuration in Studio.</p>
