Wasp Full-Stack Framework Sets Six-Month Horizon for 1.0 Release

After five years of development and a $5 million funding round, the open-source React and Node-based framework Wasp has outlined its final roadmap toward a 1.0 production release.

Wasp 1.0 is officially on the six-month horizon. Co-founder and CTO Martin Sosic announced the timeline on October 20 for the open-source full-stack framework built on React, Node, and Prisma. After five years and over 100 beta releases, the eight-person team secured $5 million in funding.

The project dropped its custom declarative Spec language in favor of TypeScript and finalized core features including Auth, RPC, Jobs, Routing, API, Entities, and Deployment.

Work is split into four GitHub epics. Polish tasks under Epic #2884 cover agent orchestrators, terminal output, docs, and faster npm installs. Auth gets the largest rework, dropping Lucia to support account merging, 2FA, magic links, and passkeys via a modular interface that can integrate with BetterAuth, Clerk, or WorkOS. Deployment updates target wasp build output for a single server, a free hosting option alongside wasp deploy <provider>, and more reliable Fly and Railway support.

Production-readiness tasks in Epic #2888 establish a dependency policy keeping core dependencies within six months of latest releases, plus performance documentation and native Windows support outside WSL.

Full Stack Modules—modular vertical slices for Stripe, file uploads, and AI chat bundling frontend, backend, database, and Spec—will land before 1.0. Stretch goals include role-based access control, Drizzle support, and Wasp Studio.
