Events are used for special announcements. There are stickers and banners that can be
displayed to the user. These can be used to announce an imminent release with a
sticker and countdown clock, or can be used to invite users to a future
conference, or can be used to announce that a new release is available for download.
See the authoring guide for instructions on how to use these announcements.
- If a returning user comes to the site, if there are unread
blog posts or news articles less than 15 quadrllion nanosecond
old will be treated as being unread. When there are unred articles,
the News or Blog link in the title bar will get a green dot indicating
articles are available. When clicking on News, then you'll get the
news categories with a pill showing how many articles are unread for
each category.
First-time visitors to the site will not get any dots or pills for
existing articles. These will only appear in subsequent visits for
new articles.
Due to the default behavior for new users, if you just look at the
preview, you will not see any pills or dots. To see what this actually
looks like, load up the preview, then go to the Chrome Developer Tools,
click on the Application tab, then on Local Storage, and then find the
visitedPages entry. Right click on the entry, select Edit Value,
and set the value to {}. Then refresh the page and you
should see some dots show up next to the Blog and News links in
the header.
- Swap the "build" and "gen" terms used in this repo to match
what we do in other repos. "gen" generates a bunch of files, which
is needed by "build". Unlike other repos, the output of "gen" doesn't
need to be checked in to Git however.
- The clean target now cleans the generated directory.
- Makefile.core.mk now defines SOURCE_BRANCH_NAME that decides which
branch we get reference material from. This makes it much simpler to
switch branches.
- Added the "update_all" target which does all the work needed to pull
in the imported content.
- Add linter support to detect internal links to aliases. Those are now flagged as
bad links so the source needs to be updated to point to the real destination,
avoiding the user a redirect.
- Fixed occurences of links to aliases.
- Now only load popper.js on pages that use popups in order to improve
load times.
- Fixes the bug where not all of our files would get the right lastmod
time extracted from GitHub.
- Fixes most of the cases of bad HTML output around the use of {{<text>}}. There's
still a single bad case which I'll report to the Hugo folks.
- Use Hugo's new --minify option to minify HTML instead of having to use the
separate and slow html-minifier program.
- Fix some bad HTML on the landing page.
- We now detect text blocks that are incorrectly indented.
- We now detect image captions that end in a period.
- We now detect page descriptions that don't end in a period.
- CircleCi now runs linting without minifying HTML first, improving perf and
improving error output.
- In CircleCi, we now have a per-build cache for HTML proofer output. This
helps reduce the frequency of link timeout errors.
- Fix errors flagged by the above new lint checks.
