Cycloid changelog
Components workflow revisited
We've been hard at work, not just squashing bugs, but also laying the groundwork for a smoother and more intuitive experience across the board! This release brings significant improvements to the global usage of cycloid, from onboarding to better error management and feedback.
🛠️ Breaking Change: Component Creation Workflow Revamp
The most significant update in this release is a complete restructuring of the "component" creation workflow. This is a breaking change, and we've already updated our clients (such as the CLI) to support the new flow. Please ensure your tools are also up-to-date!
The new workflow is designed to be more natural, making component creation faster and more logical:
Name & Stack First: You are now expected to fill the name of your component first, and then select the stack.
Usecase & Configuration Next: The second step is selecting the usecase, followed by configuring your stackforms.
This change simplifies things "under the hood" for stacks using templating, as it allows for interpolation in a more natural and logical sequence.
✨ General Improvements & Quality of Life
Improved Onboarding: A smoother introduction to cycloid for new users.
Better Error Management: More helpful and clearer error messages, making it easier to troubleshoot issue
Tons of Bug Fixes: We've ironed out numerous bugs to ensure greater stability and reliability.
Stay tuned for other awesome features that will arrive really soon! Happy deploying!
