## Summary
Completes the migration of the frontend styling system from **Emotion**
(`@emotion/styled`, `@emotion/react`) to **Linaria** (`@linaria/react`,
`@linaria/core`), a zero-runtime CSS-in-JS library where styles are
extracted at build time.
This is the final step of the migration — all ~494 files across
`twenty-front`, `twenty-ui`, `twenty-website`, and `twenty-sdk` are now
fully converted.
## Changes
### Styling Migration (across ~480 component files)
- Replaced all `@emotion/styled` imports with `@linaria/react`
- Converted runtime theme access patterns (`({ theme }) => theme.x.y`)
to build-time `themeCssVariables` CSS custom properties
- Replaced `useTheme()` hook (from Emotion) with
`useContext(ThemeContext)` where runtime theme values are still needed
(e.g., passing colors to non-CSS props like icon components)
- Removed `@emotion/react` `css` helper usages in favor of Linaria
template literals
### Dependency & Configuration Changes
- **Removed**: `@emotion/react`, `@emotion/styled` from root
`package.json`
- **Added**: `@wyw-in-js/babel-preset`, `next-with-linaria` (for
twenty-website SSR support)
- Updated Nx generator defaults from `@emotion/styled` to
`@linaria/react` in `nx.json`
- Simplified `vite.config.ts` (removed Emotion-specific configuration)
- Updated `twenty-website/next.config.js` to use `next-with-linaria` for
SSR Linaria support
### Storybook & Testing
- Removed `ThemeProvider` from Emotion in Storybook previews
(`twenty-front`, `twenty-sdk`)
- Now relies solely on `ThemeContextProvider` for theme injection
### Documentation
- Removed the temporary `docs/emotion-to-linaria-migration-plan.md`
(migration complete)
- Updated `CLAUDE.md` and `README.md` to reflect Linaria as the styling
stack
- Updated frontend style guide docs across all locales
## How it works
Linaria extracts styles at build time via the `@wyw-in-js/vite` plugin.
All expressions in `styled` template literals must be **statically
evaluable** — no runtime theme objects or closures over component state.
- **Static styles** use `themeCssVariables` which map to CSS custom
properties (`var(--theme-color-x)`)
- **Runtime theme access** (for non-CSS use cases like icon `color`
props) uses `useContext(ThemeContext)` instead of Emotion's `useTheme()`
## Remove all Recoil references and replace with Jotai
### Summary
- Removed every occurrence of Recoil from the entire codebase, replacing
with Jotai equivalents where applicable
- Updated `README.md` tech stack: `Recoil` → `Jotai`
- Rewrote documentation code examples to use
`createAtomState`/`useAtomState` instead of `atom`/`useRecoilState`, and
removed `RecoilRoot` wrappers
- Cleaned up source code comment and Cursor rules that referenced Recoil
- Applied changes across all 13 locale translations (ar, cs, de, es, fr,
it, ja, ko, pt, ro, ru, tr, zh)
Added example output showing what the roles table should look like after
creating the postgres role

## Summary
This PR reduces clutter at the repository root to improve navigation on
GitHub. The README is now visible much sooner when browsing the repo.
## Changes
### Deleted from root
- `nx` wrapper script → use `npx nx` instead
- `render.yaml` → no longer used
- `jest.preset.js` → inlined `@nx/jest/preset` directly in each
package's jest.config
- `.prettierrc` → moved config to `package.json`
- `.prettierignore` → patterns already covered by `.gitignore`
### Moved/Consolidated
| From | To |
|------|-----|
| `Makefile` | `packages/twenty-docker/Makefile` (merged) |
| `crowdin-app.yml` | `.github/crowdin-app.yml` |
| `crowdin-docs.yml` | `.github/crowdin-docs.yml` |
| `.vale.ini` | `.github/vale.ini` |
| `tools/eslint-rules/` | `packages/twenty-eslint-rules/` |
| `eslint.config.react.mjs` |
`packages/twenty-front/eslint.config.react.mjs` |
## Result
Root items reduced from ~32 to ~22 (folders + files).
## Files updated
- GitHub workflow files updated to reference new crowdin config paths
- Jest configs updated to use `@nx/jest/preset` directly
- ESLint configs updated with new import paths
- `nx.json` updated with new paths
- `package.json` now includes prettier config and updated workspace
paths
- Dockerfile updated with new eslint-rules path
## Summary
Adds comprehensive documentation for the `IS_MULTIWORKSPACE_ENABLED`
configuration variable, which was previously undocumented despite being
a fundamental configuration option that significantly changes how Twenty
behaves.
## Changes
### Self-Host Setup Guide (`setup.mdx`)
Added a new **Multi-Workspace Mode** section that explains:
- **Single-workspace mode (default)**: Only one workspace allowed, first
user gets admin privileges, signups disabled after first workspace
- **Multi-workspace mode**: Multiple workspaces with subdomain-based
URLs (e.g., `sales.your-domain.com`)
- **Related config variables**: `DEFAULT_SUBDOMAIN` and
`IS_WORKSPACE_CREATION_LIMITED_TO_SERVER_ADMINS`
- **DNS configuration**: Wildcard DNS setup for dynamic subdomains
- **Workspace creation restrictions**: How to limit workspace creation
to server admins
### Local Setup Guide (`local-setup.mdx`)
Added an info callout in the environment variables section to make
contributors aware of multi-workspace mode, useful when testing
subdomain-based features.
## Why This Matters
The `IS_MULTIWORKSPACE_ENABLED` variable controls:
- Whether multiple workspaces can exist on a single instance
- URL structure (plain domain vs subdomains)
- First user privileges
- Sign-up behavior after initial setup
- SSO workspace resolution logic
This is critical knowledge for self-hosters who want to run Twenty as a
multi-tenant SaaS.
Reorganizing by Feature sections
Capabilities folders to give an overview of each feature
How-Tos folders to give guidance for advanced customizations
Reorganized the Developers section as well, moving the API sub section
there
added some new visuals and videos to illustrate the How-Tos articles
checked the typos, the links and added a section at the end of the
doc.json file to redirect existing links to the new ones (SEO purpose +
continuity of the user experience)
What I have not updated is the "l" folder that, per my understanding,
contains the translation of the User Guide - that I only edited in
English
