Summary

Retool has introduced a revamped platform designed to enhance collaboration and streamline application development, featuring a fully configurable IDE inspired by popular tools like VSCode and IntelliJ. The new IDE offers improved autocomplete, code evaluation, and customizable tabs for better navigation. Retool also introduces multiplayer editing for real-time collaboration, new source control UI for easier Git integration, and a human-readable serialization format called Toolscript, which reduces diffs by 80% for more efficient code reviews. The updates include expanded capabilities such as Retool Email, File Storage, and integration with AWS Secrets Manager and Hashicorp Vault for secrets management. These enhancements aim to empower developers to build critical software using a familiar development lifecycle while offering improved performance, especially for cloud and on-premise customers.
