When we launched Telex back in August, we invited everyone to experiment with AI-powered block creation.
Since then, thousands of you have built blocks, shared feedback, and pushed the tool in directions we didn’t expect.
That enthusiasm kept us going. Here’s what’s new.
1. Show Telex what you want to build
You can now upload reference images when describing your block. A Figma mockup. A screenshot of a design you like. A napkin sketch.
Upload it alongside your prompt and let Telex see what you’re imagining.
This helps most with complex layouts — or when you’re chasing a specific aesthetic. Instead of writing a detailed description of how every element should be arranged, just show it.
A picture is worth a thousand prompt words, or so they say.
2. Work in your favorite editor, then come back
One of our most requested features — editing blocks outside of Telex — is here.
Download your block, open it in VS Code, Cursor, or whatever you prefer (we’re not starting that debate), and make your changes. Then upload the zip back to Telex to keep refining with AI.
This round-trip workflow bridges AI generation and traditional development. It’s early days — we’ll keep improving it.
3. Explore previous versions risk-free
Version history now works better. When you restore a previous version, Telex creates a new version instead of overwriting your current work.
This means you can explore past iterations, compare approaches, and recover that thing you deleted three prompts ago.
Your past mistakes are now just research. Or as we call it: iterative development.
4. Telex speaks your language
Telex is now available in 7 languages for you to create blocks and experiment.
We also fixed an issue where Japanese, Chinese, emoji, and other multi-byte characters weren’t streaming correctly.
5. Small improvements that add up
We’ve also shipped a bunch of smaller fixes:
- Dynamic page titles: Juggling multiple blocks in different tabs? The page title now matches your selected project.
- Save confirmations: Manual code edits now show a “Files updated” message. You’ll always know your changes took.
- Shorter share links: Cleaner URLs that are easier to pass along.
- Changelog page: Want to keep up with every update? We now have a dedicated changelog. It’s like release notes, but we actually write them.
Keep experimenting
Telex is a living experiment. Your feedback shapes where it goes.
Spin up a block. Try the image upload. Tell us what’s working and what isn’t — in the comments or through the in-app feedback form.
