v0.19.1
Warning
This release added a logic bug around navigating to link fragments which was resolved in v0.19.2 (which you are encouraged to update to instead).
This release adds a few miscellaneous features and bumps up the Kotlin target to 2.0.20.
Important
Planning to upgrade? Review instructions in the README.
The biggest feature introduced in this release is callouts.
Note
GitHub also has callouts (they call them Alerts) and this is an example of one them: a note! GitHub also has alerts for tips, cautionary points, warnings, and important messages.
Kobweb includes all the alerts that GitHub exposes plus a few others.
I updated the handful of articles in my blog site to use callouts. If you'd like to see them in action, you can find a few examples of them in this post about fullstack Kobweb for example.
This release also adds markdown support for Callouts. They're as easy to create in Kobweb Markdown as they are in GitHub Markdown.
More information about Callouts and their markdown support can be found in the README.
Changes
Frontend
- Fixed an issue where working with
Modifier.displayIfAtLeast(Breakpoint)and that family of methods would still result in elements flickering when a page first loaded. - Tweaked a handful of composable names to be more consistent with the official API Guidelines for Jetpack Compose.
- For example,
deferRender->Deferred, and a few others. - It's not expected that the average user will even notice, but this may result in some deprecation notices for some users.
- For example,
- Removed a timer-related hack which was used to scroll to page fragments.
- At the very least, the code is clean now; at best, there may have been the occasional case where the scroll operation wouldn't work and it should be a lot more robust now.
Silk
- New Callout widget
Markdown
- Added support for creating callouts
Gradle
- Fix a handful of cases in lesser used tasks that were still not configuration cache compatible.
Thanks!
In this release, we'd like to extend our appreciation to @okarmazin, who has been nothing but kind to the project in the Kotlin slack and has been going through the new user experience, filing bugs, and helping us by cleaning up mistakes and gaps in our README. Thank you very much for the support!
