- If no color theme has been selected, the site now follows the user's system's
color scheme. This only works in Safari right now, but support in Chrome and Firefox
is on its way.
- Fix occasional white flash that would happen when loading pages while using the dark
theme.
- Substantially simplify logic that deals with releases & release notes.
- Make it easier to add a new release to the site. THere are fewer things to
change as the site infra can figure more stuff out on its own.
- Make it so release notes can be added in one language without require them
to be added in the other language.
- Replace the ugly "a new version is available" callout on older release note
pages with a popup that only shows up when you click on the download button.
- Darken the text color of the selected tab in a tab set.
- Remove extra bottom border line in collapsed sidebar panels.
- Cleaned up accessibility annotations for the sidebar.
- HTML tags appearing in bash text block output weren't being escaped properly, making them
disappear.
- Never call prism when syntax coloring is turned off, otherwise things
fail with an exception.
- Add tests for the various text block features.
- Combine text_file and text_dynamic into text_import
- Add support for snippet extraction for text downloaded from a URL
- Add support for formatting output blocks in a different style for
content downloaded from a URL
- Report some errors when unable to fetch content from a URL.
- Fixed a few small bugs along the way.
- Added call-to-action buttons in the 1.1 announcements. We can use the same
buttons in future release announcements.
- Fixed broken large warning icon on the 404 error page.
- Fix oerder of blog posts in the side bar.
- Add support to not expand @@ notations in text blocks and use
it for a text blocks that's currently triggering a build failure
- Fixed broken rendering of some text blocks when syntax coloring
is turned off via the menu.
- Increase the constrast for links, per LightHouse analysis.
- Add support for disabling syntax coloring in example text blocks. This
can be controlled from the menu.
- Work on keyboard navigation support. It's not totally done yet,
but its a lot better than it's ever been.
- Fix incorrect font use for code blocks. They were coming out way
smaller than intended.
- Improve the HTML in a variety of ways to make it better for
screen readers.
- Make better use of html semantic elements to help
search & screen readers.
- Add or improve ARIA annotations for accessibility
- Improve print-time formatting.
- Reshuffle the floating icons to put the most common thing on top
- In the sidebar, if a card has only top-level items (no subsections)
then move the text to the left to soak up the unused room normally
reserved for the chevron. This improves the look for blog-related cards
- Put a wee bit more spacing between the links in the header on mobile
to make 'em easier to hit with fat fingers.
- Now that the scripts are loaded with 'defer', no need to trigger all
behavior via a DOMContentLoaded event handler as the scripts will all
naturally run after the DOM has been loaded.
- Use a considerably simpler approach to copy to the clipboard in code
blocks. This saves around 10K of script code believe it or not.
- We now display an "Edit this Page" and a "Report Bugs" button on every page
when rendering the preliminary mode site.
- Optimized the SVG imagery for smaller size and thus faster download & parsing.
This removes two very large dependencies which ends up making
each page load considerably faster, especially on mobile. Plus,
not using bootstrap actually made several things simpler throughout
the site's logic.
