- 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.
- Correct the use of OpenGraph annotations. I used the wrong attribute name, so the
annotations were never recognized.
- Added support for Twitter cards to our site, improving the experience of referencing
the site from Twitter posts.
- Added support for the twitter: front matter field for use in blog posts. Specifying this
front-matter entry will show the author's twitter address on the blog post, and will
add a Twitter card entry to the page noting the author's address.
- Renamed the page_icon front matter field to just icon to be consistent with other
entries.
- Made it so the subtitle front matter field can be used anywhere, not just on blog posts.
- Added a lint check to ensure subtitles don't end with a period.
- We now insert an "author" metadata entry whenever the attribution: front matter
field is used.
- 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.
