CHANGELOG

All notable changes to this project are documented in this file.

{: .highlight } The project underwent a major maintenance shift in March 2022.

HEAD

{: .note } This website is built from the HEAD of the main branch of the theme repository.

{: .warning } This website includes docs for some new features that are not available in v0.4.0.rc2 and v0.3.3!

Changes to main that are not in the latest pre-release:

  • Fixed: incorrect disambiguation in generated TOCs by @pdmosses in #999
  • Fixed: duplicated external links in collections by @pdmosses in #1001
  • Fixed: import order of custom.scss; puts at end by @deseo in #1010
  • Fixed: top-level active link styling by @pdmosses in #1015
  • Fixed: external links for sites with no pages by @pdmosses in #1021
  • Docs: fix typo in changelog links @koppor in #1000
  • Docs: update homepage (focus: new features, conciseness, deduplication) by @pdmosses in #1018
  • Docs: update README (focus: new features, conciseness, deduplication) by @pdmosses in #1019

Pre-release v0.4.0.rc3

Hi there! This is (actually) hopefully the last prerelease before v0.4.0; in particular, if we find that this prerelease is stable, we'll re-release it as v0.4.0.

In general, this is a more mature pre-release; there are few new features. However, we'll highlight @pdmosses's work in #992 to better optimize nav generation for large sites (ex 100+ pages). We don't expect this to affect most users; however, it is technically a breaking change, and we suggest testing your site before upgrading to this prerelease.

We want your feedback! Please open an issue or start a discussion and let us know!

As soon as we get stable test results from major downstream users, we'll push out a v0.4.0 ASAP - closing out almost 2 years of backlogged work!

Trying out pre-release v0.4.0.rc3

Simlar to the prior release, v0.4.0.rc3 is a release candidate for the theme (i.e., a pre-release) with release v0.4.0 coming soon. We want your help in testing the changes! As of now, the gem on RubyGems and the repository are updated to v0.4.0.rc3.

To use this RC explicitly as a remote theme:

remote_theme: just-the-docs/[email protected]

To use this RC explicitly as a gem-based theme, pin the version in your Gemfile and re-run bundle install or bundle update just-the-docs:

gem "just-the-docs", "0.4.0.rc3"

By default, users will not be upgraded to 0.4.0.rc3. To enforce that explicitly, either:

  1. pin your gem version in your Gemfile, like so
gem "just-the-docs", "0.3.3"
  1. freeze the remote_theme, like so
remote_theme: just-the-docs/[email protected]

Features

Broadly, this prerelease is feature-light!

Bugfixes and Experimental Features

  • Added: experimental nav optimization for simple cases by @pdmosses in #992
  • Fixed: spacing issue when search is disabled by @henryiii in #960
  • Fixed: active grandchild link class by @pdmosses in #962

Pre-release v0.4.0.rc2

{: .warning } This website includes docs for some new features that are not available in v0.4.0.rc1 and v0.3.3!

Hey there! This is likely the last pre-release before releasing v0.4.0, which we plan on doing soon (i.e. before the end of the month) - very exciting! Some new additions to highlight:

  • significant improvement on build time of navigation panel by @pdmosses
    • this is big: for a community member with over 300 pages, we shortened the build time from 3 minutes to 30 seconds!
  • improved accessibility features led by @JPrevost
  • more docs!

The intention of this release candidate is to gather even more feedback on a potential v0.4.0. As it stands, we have not encountered any breaking changes with early adopters of v0.4.0.rc1. If you encounter any - for either of our pre-releases - please let us know!

Trying out pre-release v0.4.0.rc2

Simlar to the prior release, v0.4.0.rc2 is a release candidate for the theme (i.e., a pre-release) with release v0.4.0 coming soon. We want your help in testing the changes! As of now, the gem on RubyGems and the repository are updated to v0.4.0.rc2.

Pre-release v0.4.0.rc1

We're back!

Hi all! The Just the Docs team is excited to have our first pre-release in over two years! It is jam-packed with features and bugfixes that have been requested by the community since 2020. They include:

  • The new callouts component
  • Allowing pages and collections to coexist on the navigation pane
  • New styling: dark syntax highlighting, support for jekyll-asciidoc, word-wrapping instead of overflow for various elements
  • More customization: external nav links, custom nav footers, favicon includes, search color and placeholder configuration, mermaid.js support, and nav sorting
  • Over 20 bugfixes! Big ones include fixing the rake command, using relative_url, and search input color
  • More documentation, especially on using custom includes
  • Updating core dependencies to stable Ruby versions
  • A WIP template repository that allows you to setup your own repository using Just the Docs and GitHub Pages with one click - give it a shot! More documentation, etc. is on the way!

We want your feedback! Are these changes helpful? Are our docs easy to understand? Should new features like mermaid be opt-in or opt-out? Please open an issue or start a discussion and let us know!

Trying out pre-release v0.4.0.rc1

Due to the massive scope of these changes, we're making v0.4.0.rc1 avaialble as a release candidate for the theme (i.e., a pre-release) with release v0.4.0 coming soon. We want your help in testing the changes! As of now, the gem on RubyGems and the repository are updated to v0.4.0.rc1.

To use this RC explicitly as a remote theme:

remote_theme: just-the-docs/[email protected]

To use this RC explicitly as a gem-based theme, pin the version in your Gemfile and re-run bundle install or bundle update just-the-docs:

gem "just-the-docs", "0.4.0.rc1"

Staying on v0.3.3

If you're not ready to make the switch, that's alright! If your version of just-the-docs is pinned to v0.3.3 (i.e. by a Gemfile.lock or in remote_theme, then there's nothing you need to do.

If you have not pinned your theme version, you should either:

  1. pin your gem version in your Gemfile, like so
gem "just-the-docs", "0.3.3"
  1. freeze the remote_theme, like so
remote_theme: just-the-docs/[email protected]

{: .warning } Use of branches for closed PRs (e.g., #466, #578) is now deprecated, as those branches have been (directly or indirectly) merged, and they may be deleted after the pre-release of v0.4.0.rc1.

Maintenance

Internally, our maintainer team has expanded: Patrick Marsceill, the original maintainer, has stepped down from an active role after almost 4 years! We're very thankful for the work that he's done to create and maintain one of the most popular Jekyll themes. Please join us in giving him thanks!

The new core team currently consists of @mattxwang, @pdmosses, @skullface, @dougaitken, and @max06. Over the past six months, we've been triaging and merging in PRs, as well as contributing our own fixes. We'll continue to address open issues, merge in PRs from the community, and plan out the future of Just the Docs. If you'd like to contribute, now is a great time!

Roadmap

In the short-term, we're committed to tidying up everything for a v0.4.0 release. This involves fixing bugs reported from the community in this pre-release, as well as continually merging in minor PRs.

We're also scoping out medium and long-term projects, and want to keep you in the loop. These include:

  • upgrading to Jekyll 4, and stopping support for Jekyll 3
  • versioned docs - issue #728
  • improved accessibility - issues #566, #870
  • internationalization (i18n) - issue #59
  • recursive/multi-level navigation - PR #462
  • toggleable dark mode - issue #234

as well as DX improvements like better regression tests, CI, and tooling. If you're interested in any of these, please join us on GitHub - any contribution (raising an issue, writing docs, or submitting a PR) is welcome!
