Update Frequently

While Loop-dev is under active development, you should monitor zulipchat and update frequently. Sometimes the dev branch is quiet for months at a time and other times there are more frequent changes. Please pay attention.

Checking for updates every week is a good idea. Also - subscribe to all the streams on Loop Zulipchat to make sure you don't miss critical information.

Loop-dev Version

The version of code that shows up under the Loop Settings screen is incremented whenever the dev branch is modified, as explained in Loop Version Numbering.

If you need help with your app, the mentors need to know you are running a dev branch and the specific version that shows on your settings screen.
