Documentation now lives where you work
The headline here is small but it’s the kind of thing that matters day to day. We added user-facing documentation for posts, pages, and patterns. So when an editor is staring at a pattern wondering what it’s for or how it’s meant to be used, the guidance is right there in the editor. Not in a PDF somebody emailed six months ago, not buried in a Slack thread nobody can find.
This is the unglamorous side of building a theme for government teams. The people doing the content work aren’t always the people who set the site up, and they shouldn’t have to go hunting to figure out how a pattern works. This closes a little of that gap.
Under the hood
The rest of 0.7.2 is developer-facing cleanup:
- Consolidated the admin color CSS and removed the pre-7.0 admin shim (the shim bridged older admin styling, and we’re past the point of needing it)
- Removed two unused dependencies, simple-parallax-js and react-beautiful-dnd, for a leaner build
