## Summary https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1e75cc9d-d9d2-4ef2-99f9-34450f5d8de7 Add background incremental type checking (`tsc --watch`) to the SDK dev mode, so type regressions are caught when the generated API client changes — without requiring a full rebuild of source files. Previously, removing a field from the data model would regenerate the API client, but existing front components/logic functions referencing the removed field wouldn't surface type errors (since their source didn't change, esbuild wouldn't rebuild them). ## What changed - **Background `tsc --watch`**: a long-lived TypeScript watcher runs alongside esbuild watchers, incrementally re-checking all files when the generated client changes. Only logs on state transitions (errors appear / errors clear) to stay quiet. - **Atomic client generation**: API client is now generated into a temp directory and swapped in atomically, avoiding a race condition where `tsc --watch` could see an empty `generated/` directory mid-regeneration. - **Step decoupling**: orchestrator steps no longer receive `uploadFilesStep` directly. Instead, they use callbacks (`onFileBuilt`, `onApiClientGenerated`), and each step manages its own `builtFileInfos` state. - **`apiClientChecksum` omitted from `ApplicationConfig`**: it's a build-time computed value, same as `packageJsonChecksum`. <img width="327" height="177" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/02bd25bb-fa41-42b0-8d96-01c51bd4580c" /> <img width="529" height="452" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/61f6e968-365b-4a5b-8f2b-a8419d6b1bd3" />

Does the world need another CRM?
We built Twenty for three reasons:
CRMs are too expensive, and users are trapped. Companies use locked-in customer data to hike prices. It shouldn't be that way.
A fresh start is required to build a better experience. We can learn from past mistakes and craft a cohesive experience inspired by new UX patterns from tools like Notion, Airtable or Linear.
We believe in Open-source and community. Hundreds of developers are already building Twenty together. Once we have plugin capabilities, a whole ecosystem will grow around it.
