The most important changes and updates to Makerkit
Starting from the release of Makerkit v2Under Development...
Below is a list of tasks currently under development and planned to be released soon in the next month or so. The list can change based on priorities and feedback.
Analytics Package
Introducing a new analytics package to help you track and analyze user behavior with any analytics provider.
We're excited to introduce our new Analytics Package, a powerful addition to the Makerkit SaaS starter kit. This update brings a flexible, provider-agnostic Analytics API and an App Events System, allowing for seamless integration with various analytics services.
The package introduces automatic page view tracking for Next.js applications and includes built-in support for popular services like PostHog, Umami, and Google Analytics. Developers can now easily track user behavior with pre-configured events for sign-ins, sign-ups, checkout initiations, and profile updates.
Our new API simplifies user identification and custom event tracking, while the centralized event handling system keeps your analytics logic clean and maintainable. The package's extensible design allows for easy implementation of custom analytics providers, adapting to diverse SaaS analytics needs.
To support a smooth integration process, we've provided comprehensive documentation detailing the new features and implementation guidelines. This update significantly enhances the analytics capabilities of Makerkit projects, offering developers greater insight into user behavior and app usage.
