Owlet Weekly Update (Week of June 29th)

June 30th, 2020

Happy Tuesday (and last day of June... 🤯), everyone! Last week was a short week for all of us at ReadMe — we spent Thursday and Friday at our summer "offsite." I'm putting "offsite" in quotes because we normally do our offsites in person, but this one was fully remote due to the pandemic... but despite the circumstances, we had a great time! Check out our latest Instagram post to see what we were up to. 👨🏽‍🎨

Despite the short week, we shipped a lot of exciting improvements to the navigation bar, Documentation Metrics, and more. Plus, our project is officially using the new Search improvements! Check out our project and hit ⌘ (or Ctrl)+K to see it in action!

Read onward to get the details on all of this. 👇🏽

What is the Owlet Weekly Update?

Welcome to the fourth edition of the Owlet Weekly Update (working title) — an owlet-sized update (posted every Tuesday to the ReadMe Changelog) where we provide an overview of the bug fixes and minor improvements that went out as part of our new Tuesday release cycle.

As we refine our format and process for providing these updates, we'd love to hear what you think at [email protected]!

Bug Fixes and Minor Improvements

  • Enterprise projects were unable to load certain parts of the Documentation Metrics platform in the dashboard... yikes! Happy to report that the data is loading properly now, and that you can finally get back to learning about your documentation visitors again! 📊
  • Certain projects were briefly unable to take advantage of the huge behind-the-scenes improvements to our Search feature. Those projects can now take advantage—search away! 🔥
  • Improvements to how the ReadMe Markdown engine renders content in the Changelog. ✏️
  • We were seeing an issue in Safari where certain API reference sections were getting cut off. That issue is now fixed! ✂️
  • Some minor style fixes to the new Search design. 🎨
  • Several small backward-compatibility improvements to the ReadMe Markdown engine. ⏪
  • Various small linking fixes for enterprise projects. 🔗
  • Loading improvements for API logs in the API Reference section. ⚡
  • A couple of small style improvements on mobile (which you may have noticed if you're reading this post on your phone!). 📱

Bigger Feature Updates and Improvements

  • You may have noticed in the last week or so that we made some design improvements to our navigation bar, which should drastically simplify project navigation! Check out our docs for information on how to enable these improvements on your project. 🧭
  • One of these days, I'm going to stop mentioning our massive Search improvements... but today is not that day! We've been gradually rolling these beautiful visual updates over the last few weeks, and we're continuing that rollout to some more projects today (including ours)! Let us know what you think of the changes at [email protected]! 🔍
