Important Announcement on Next Release #156

Open gaperton opened 7 years ago

Hello, everyone.

It took a long time for the next major release, but now we're almost there. There is the major change introduced since this version.

As you probably know, both NestedReact and NestedTypes used to be dependent on underscore and jQuery. Also, NestedTypes contains Backbone compatibility shims and NestedReact contains Backbone View integration layer.

Since the upcoming version, it's gonna be changed.

  1. All core functionality of the NestedTypes and NestedReact becomes dependency free and is moved to the Type-R and React-MVx repos respectively.
  2. NestedTypes and NestedReact continue its existence as the "legacy technology integration layer". They are heavily used in Volicon/Verizon products and will be supported as long as we get rid of the Backbone Views in our products (which will probably never happen).

There's the problem, though. This release has some breaking changes (and exciting new features, of course) thus it cannot be released without the documentation. And I need help with that (and with programming examples). Anything from the review to contribution will be highly welcomed.

Anyone willing to help please leave the comment here. Thanks.
