- 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.
- Use a new approach to managing icons. This has two primary benefits:
- It makes it possible to color the icons such that they look good in the
dark theme. Previously, the icons were rendered in black on dark grey when
using the dark theme.
- The average payload size for our web pages is reduced and we better use the
browser cache.
- The new icon approach makes it possible to remove our dependency on the fontawesome
package, which further slims down our payload requirement
- Refresh our iconography for a slightly lighter look.
- Remove the extra thick left-hand border of text blocks to lighten the
look.
- Added a "NN minutes to read" indication on top of each page. This is
only displayed if the count is > 1 minute.
- Added a calendar icon next to the blog post date.
- Exposed a bunch of strings that were buried in CSS/JS to translation.
- Add the 'keywords:' front-matter fields to the Hugo archetypes.
