We are thrilled to announce the release of StarLogo Nova 2.0, a completely new version that eliminates our dependency on Flash. StarLogo Nova can now run on iPads, Chromebooks, and even some phones, and is nearly 10x faster on very old and very new computers. We have also improved several of the things you use most often: creating and organizing projects, creating "widgets" such as sliders and graphs, configuring breeds and traits, choosing 3D shapes (or even uploading your own!), and using the blocks editor are all now easier and more powerful than ever. | We are thrilled to announce the release of StarLogo Nova 2.0, a completely new version that eliminates our dependency on Flash.

We are thrilled to announce the release of StarLogo Nova 2.0, a completely new version that eliminates our dependency on Flash. StarLogo Nova can now run on iPads, Chromebooks, and even some phones, and is nearly 10x faster on very old and very new computers. We have also improved several of the things you use most often: creating and organizing projects, creating "widgets" such as sliders and graphs, configuring breeds and traits, choosing 3D shapes (or even uploading your own!), and using the blocks editor are all now easier and more powerful than ever.
With so many changes, some things may be unfamiliar to experienced users. But we hope you will find that the new StarLogo Nova allows you to do even more, in ways that make even more sense. See the Changes and Improvements in Version 2.0 guide for an overview of what the new version can do!
Are you hesitant about trying the new version, or still using materials designed for the Flash version? No problem! We've moved the previous version to new URL, where it will stay accessible for the next few months to give you time to update your materials and learn the new version. You can find the previous version at http://flash.slnova.org.
