## The Alpha Milestone 2 release series
## The Alpha 2 release series
February marked the start of our second year developing Graphite under the alpha release banner. We took the opportunity to declare the start of a new release series, Alpha Milestone 2, for the year's focus on integrating the node graph. That goal was a success, and we anticipate the next release series, Alpha Milestone 3, will begin next month in February with a focus on procedural art workflows in line with our [roadmap](/features#roadmap).

## Looking ahead to 2024
The hard part is done. The unified document node graph, now that it's complete, paves the pathway towards new feature development for vector and raster editing. The Alpha Milestone 2 release series is nearly ready to become Alpha Milestone 3 with a focus towards procedural editing as the theme for the year ahead. And hopefully the road to the Beta release series, and then 1.0, is not too much further ahead.

First, I have some high-level goals for 2024:
