  4. 1.1.0

    Hot on the heels of V1, here’s 1.1.0!

    📦 New

    💅 Additions

    🧙‍♂️🎩🐇 Improvements

    • Use inquiry in many components instead of custom predicate methods (eg. @theme.dark? instead of dark_theme?)
    • Basic config options for NotificationComponent
    • Use dynamic incon insertion for component files (similar to component variants)

    🎷🐛 Bugfix

  5. 1.0.0

    Here is v1 of Rails Designer! 🎉 With a big new feature to customize the variant configuration in the library. This makes it way easier to tweak the variants and know out-of-the-gate the supported values per configuration option. Next to that is supported for rails_icons. It defaults to inlining the Heroicon’s icons, if you choose not to install it.

    Preview of the configuration panel for the DropdownComponent, with the options to change values like position, theme and container CSs

    I also want to thank all of the early adopters who got their copy before this v1 was out. You are awesome! 🙌
