Confirmed: version numbers really are cheap 🏷️ #StatorJS 2.5 is out 🚀 five minors since 2.0. Each one small, but together they round out what production apps need: real security primitives, first-party middleware, and a CLI that owns the toolchain. statorjs.dev

statorjs.devStator · the server-canonical JavaScript framework built on state machinesA web framework where state machines are the unit of composition and the DOM renders where its state lives — almost always the server.

The security round: a machine can now declare events no client may ever send. serverOnly: ['CHARGE_APPROVED'] A forged approval is rejected at the wire, never processed as truth. The machine definition stays the complete list of what can happen, and now of who may cause it.

Middleware is a file, not config. middleware.ts covers every route by position, and the framework's security defaults always run first. Stator's built-in CSRF guard was the proving case: it's now crossSiteGuard(), first-party middleware alongside cors() and securityHeaders().

The hand-written server.ts is gone. stator dev / build / start / check / test, with typed config in stator.config.ts. Our favorite part: stator build runs stator check first, a full server-stack typecheck, so a broken server import fails the build instead of shipping silently.

2.5 itself adds the seam the CLI made necessary: boot.ts. defineBoot hosts server-lifetime work, query config at startup, run the poll or subscription that feeds your machines, tear down on shutdown. Boot is a source, not a controller. Policy stays in the machine, where it's testable.
