varabyte/kobweb v0.11.1

on GitHub

A fairly minor release -- just some misc. changes after the major v0.11.0 update landed.

I also updated the responsive example ($ kobweb create examples/responsive) to showcase a responsive side menu which gets hidden behind a button on mobile.

Frontend

• New modifier for the CSS float property
• New modifier for the CSS visibility property

Gradle

• New configAsKobweb[Application|Library] utility methods, which can help remove boilerplate from your Kobweb project's gradle scripts.
  • Used in a kotlin block to set up js and jvm configuration values that Kobweb expects. Looks like:

  kotlin {
      configAsKobwebApplication(includeServer = true)
      commonMain { ... }
      jsMain { ... }
      jvmMain { ... } // <-- Excluded if includeServer = false
  } 
  

  • All templates have been updated to use this approach, so you can refer to them if you want to migrate your own build scripts over.
• New notifyKobwebAbout[Frontend|Backend]CodeGeneratingTask utility methods, useful if you have a task in your own project that generates some code as a side effect that Kobweb should pick up on.
  • This used to be something you could accomplish by explicitly inserting your own task in front of :kobwebGenFrontend and :kobwebGenBackend, but that was fragile as there aren't any guarantees that Kobweb Gradle plugins won't be updated in the future so this assumption is no longer true.
