Tooling

• Added support for higher-kinded types in suggestions in the language server
  (#1712). This allows the
  searcher to make more accurate suggestions when working with collection types.
  
• Fixed an issue where symlinks were not extracted properly when installing a
  runtime for Enso (#1718).
  

Libraries

• Overhauled the examples throughout the standard library
  (#1707,
  #1725, and
  #1731). These examples all now
  conform to a standard format and have been tested to work.
  
• Made some miscellaneous fixes to the HTTP portion of the Base library that
  fix a few bugs (#1722).
  
• Removed reflective access when loading the OpenCV library
  (#1727). Illegal reflective
  access operations were deprecated and will be denied in future JVM releases.
  
• Overhauled the types we use for errors throughout the standard library
  (#1734). They are now much more
  informative, and should provide more clarity when things go wrong.
  

Miscellaneous

• Adding a pipeline for automatic nightly builds
  (#1689). During the night after
  each workday any new changes to the main branch are built and released as a
  nightly build. The nightly builds can be useful to preview in-development
  features, but they should not be relied on as they are not considered stable.
  Only the 3 latest nightly builds are kept, so the nightly versions become
  obsolete very quickly.
