Also the AlloyUI website has also been updated to reflect the changes in this release.

 

What's the big news?

Bootstrap and YUI updated

Starting from our dependencies, YUI has been updated from version 3.16 to 3.18. Nothing really interesting here, just a bunch of bug fixes (go to their releases page for full changelog).

We finally updated Bootstrap from version 2.3.2 to 3.2.0 and this brings a lots of improvements. Grids have been changed to provide a mobile first approach, shadows have been dropped in favor to flat design, and image sprites have been replaced by font icons (go to their releases page for full changelog).

 

New modules introduced

Some new utilities have been added such as undo/redo, palette, surface (which originated SennaJS), and cancellable promises.

Also few pretty useful widgets have been implemented such as Affix, Alert, Color Picker, Dropdown, Scrollspy, and Menu. If you're curious about this, go to our website to read more details and play with the interactive demos.

 

Automated tasks switched from Grunt to Gulp

Some of you may be familiar with Gulp and some of you may not. Task runners are small applications that are used to automate many of the time consuming, boring tasks that you have to do while developing. 

When we moved from Ant to Grunt, we had a huge performance improvement. But we didn't stop there, we want to provide the most productive workflow possible for those who contribute to our project. Gulp is based on streams and this gives you more control over your flow and relieves you of temporary folders and files.
