## What's New
## Light Lane 2.2.0 — A faster, smarter studio for laser production

Light Lane 2.2.0 brings the production app up to date with the latest staging experience: richer artwork preparation, smoother job setup, stronger material and machine workflows, and a noticeably more polished everyday workspace.

### Highlights
- More capable project, template, and artwork flows for moving from idea to laser-ready output faster.
- Expanded canvas, layer, SVG, PDF, text, shape, barcode, and QR tools for cleaner job preparation.
- Better material, machine, framing, preview, G-code, and Ruida workflows for real workshop production.
- A sharper, faster Light Lane interface with improved reliability across everyday editing and export tasks.
- A production-ready release foundation for the next stage of Light Lane.

### Why it matters
This release makes real workshop production feel calmer, quicker, and more predictable, with clearer controls, better previews, and a smoother path from artwork to laser-ready output.

### Release readiness
Prepared and validated for the main production release.
