In 3.0 we introduced code interfaces on the domain. In 1.1.0 of AshGraphql and AshJsonApi, you can now define JSON:API routes and GraphQL queries/mutations on the domain as well.
Help! It's too easy to make apps!

Code interfaces get a huge upgrade in 3.0! Define them on the Domain directly, they now support bulk actions and atomics. Each function has a rich interface so you aren't stuck writing the same code over and over again. All the benefits of a context, none of the boilerplate! 😍

🥳Pleased to announce the first beta version for ash_admin is live! I've published a demo of it on you tube: piped.video/watch?v=aFMLz3cp…. My hope is that the community will be interested in working on this, as there are so many possibilities and so many improvements to be made!

In Ash, queries can be applied at the data layer *or in memory*. This makes building behavior backed by other data layers, caches, or third party services possible completely transparently from the caller. Here is an example of a manual relationship. Really powerful stuff.

Things are looking really good, 3.0 will definitely be our biggest release yet!

In technology, we must move forward or be left behind. We've chosen the former. Beginning in Ash 3.0, structured actions will be replaced with a single option: a text prompt which will be given to GPT-4. One look and you can see how much better things will be! #myelixirstatus

🎉One of Ash's power users showed off a cool thing they built with `AshPhoenix.FilterForm` today! Automatically derived from the resource its filtering, this form provides rich filtering capabilities of the table below. Awesome stuff!

So excited for 2.0! Took longer than expected (of course), but it is scheduled for the 17th! Awesome stuff for Ash.Flow is coming, like branching, halting, and resumable flows. Ash.Flow composes, so charts can be simple or "expanded". Here is an example of both from the tests!

Documentation refactor is underway! This includes a reconsideration of all of our documentation, including solving current issues, writing new guides, and we'll finish it all off with a cookbook! The work happens live in the latest RC. Feedback welcome! hexdocs.pm/ash/3.0.0-rc.14/g…

🎉Identities now support `where` and `nils_distinct?`, in addition to supporting calculations being used as a unique field 🥳This supports more complex unique constraints and upserts (you could always accomplish arbitrary unique constraints with `custom_indexes`).

😎A direct quote from a new Ash user: "I just started using it today, but just in some hours I was able to develop a backend from scratch with all the functionality (actually more) of a backend that was being developed by a team of 3 developers (nodejs) for about 8 months".🤩

Speaking of igniter...the latest release of `ash_json_api` comes with both an installer, and a resource extender 🥳With one or two commands, you can have a full featured phoenix application with *checks notes* too many goodies to list, right out of the box.
@AshFramework has become even more powerful with ingiter-based installers added in v3.1. @ZachSDaniel1 explains why they have only just now been introduced after avoiding them for so long - alembic.com.au/blog/igniter-…

Instead of virtual fields, Ash allows for `arguments`, which are values provided to an action that can be used in `changes`. Virtual fields are confusing, but arguments are much clearer. 🤓(Support for arguments should be in ash_json_api and ash_graphql in the next few hours)
