The MyST/Jupyter Book stack shipped new releases this week. Release pages:
Where we contributed #
We’ve spent extra time lately trying to fix bugs and generally improve stability, reliability, and UX papercuts. Here are some of the things we focused on:
- Extra review time to get in concurrent executions in mystmd
- Fixing broken edit URL logic so our community “edit buttons” worked again
- Standardized link styles so users know what to expect from links
- Added extra hover metadata for github issues and PRs for communities that often link to their GitHub issues
- Made all of these releases and wrote up the release notes!
Most of our contributions were foundational in nature - we fixed a bunch of bugs, did review on the PRs of others, and managed the release process itself. Check out the changelogs for more details!
