[!CAUTION] Lucid is still in Alpha and under heavy development, so please for the time being avoid using in any production setting. There is currently no commitment to backwards compatibility and breaking changes will be released on a regular basis while APIs and interfaces are being finalised.

The development of Lucid over the next few months will reduced while we focus on building out a new related internal project. Critical issues will still be addressed promptly. Stay tuned for more details on the new project.
