Blog post: What's coming in Redoc CE 3

Hi all! 👋

Here's a quick update from the team. Since September 2025, we've been working hard on a complete overhaul of Redoc, and Redoc 3.0 is almost ready for release.

It's not just an incremental update — it's a whole new codebase! ✨ Here's a brief overview of the changes:

• ⚡ A new rendering engine that renders on demand, so huge specifications no longer slow down the page
• 🧩 Support for more than just OpenAPI:
  • GraphQL
  • AsyncAPI
  • MCP
• 🌙 Redesigned UI with a proper dark mode
• 🎨 Theming via CSS design tokens instead of the old JavaScript theme object
• 🔍 Faster search on large specs
• 🔗 Real URLs for operations, tags, and schemas instead of hash fragments

It stays MIT-licensed and self-hostable, same as always. ❤️

Regarding the open issues and PRs 🧹

Honest answer first: we haven't had time to look at them. 😬 Everyone's been busy with the rewrite since last September, and 2.x maintenance slipped. We apologise for this, as many of you took the time to report bugs and open PRs 🙏

As 3.0 has a different codebase, most of the open issues and PRs simply don't apply to it anymore. Rather than leaving them open, we're going to close most of them.

If an issue you reported still occurs in version 3.0, please open a new issue (or reopen the old one). These reports will be addressed. ✅

Thanks for sticking with the project. More news soon. 🎉

No files, tests, or code entry points are identified in this announcement. Read the linked Redoc CE page and blog post first; there is no implementation change or completion criterion specified, and the issue says that most 2.x work no longer applies to the 3.0 codebase.
