@ggarron Very cool. If you're interested in sharing back into the unreleased (and outdated) one we have on GitHub, that'd be awesome: https://t.co/wLXpN2PLcm
@TheNotoriousSDE With lots of JS you'll have to bring your own JS tooling (webpack, etc) or avoid all that and use native JS modules. Probably same between v4 and v5
@chufucious You might need to tell the markdown parser to stop being so clever with quote usage: https://t.co/5X6lSsJP82
set :markdown, :smartypants => false
Poking my head up to say:
1. GitHub Sponsors is pretty cool. If you sponsor, Microsoft will match, which is helpful when I need to pay some server costs: https://t.co/P0EulcTDqY
2. Please reach out if you're someone who wants to help. There's no core team, it's just @tdreyno.
Make collaboration easier on your #JamStack website with our new Static Site editor introduced in @gitlab v12.10. It currently supports @middlemanapp with others coming soon. Check it out: https://t.co/s4eWkvAIHv
@cabgfx@andrewmcodes@bridgetownrb Popping in to the thread to say:
A: Bridgetown rules
B: Sometimes projects accomplish their goals and are stable. I'll always fix breaking bugs, but the infinity treadmill of new features isn't that appealing after 13 years. Lemme know if you're stuff is broken, I'll fix it.
In testing Middleman v5 beta's incremental build system, we're seeing up to 5x speed improvement on VERY large sites (thousands of pages).
Please test it out so we feel confident launching!
@steveparrynz If you have lots of extensions, they may not be updated (and will likely lag behind the official extensions).
Spockets is nearly dead. So, v5 isn't a great fit for that.
Otherwise, I'd love if you ran it (master) on your repo & reported any issue so we can better write docs.
@j4lenn It's a huge change, causing the final release to take a while. Please open tickets and regressions if you find them. Timing before/after are also helpful.
@bellanger_q Ticks are not part of the original Markdown spec. That format is commonly called "Github-flavored Markdown." Middleman support multiple libraries, but you must select one that supports GH-flavor.
Want to use Github Actions with Middleman? Here's an example: https://t.co/swAESU93eS
Middleman v5 will ship with an official Docker image. Seems reasonable to make an Action at the same time!
Make sure your Gemfiles are locked to 4.x, because 5.x is right around the corner and will likely take a little time before all 3rd party extensions are compatible (mostly just a gem spec version range update on their end).
