Branching Out

Notes from the Treehouse

Release 0.2.0

Jeff Lindsay
March 27, 2023

New design system, GitHub session locking, and documentation

This release is a refinement of our initial release, fixing a number of bugs and adding interaction improvements. The look and feel of the UI was also updated with the start of a new CSS design system based on custom properties. Session locking was added for the live demo and GitHub backend so multiple devices/browsers/tabs don't clobber changes of each other. Documentation also got an upgrade with the start of a full guide on the website.
