Add view for showing a single Release and its full list of changes #49

Open mnquintana opened 8 years ago

mnquintana commented 8 years ago

Currently, https://atom.io/releases shows the full list of changes (e.g. all merged PRs) for each minor release, including the Notable Changes, which can be quite overwhelming. Here's what I'm thinking:

  1. Only show Notable Changes in the index view at https://atom.io/releases
  2. Add a new view for showing a single release (e.g. https://atom.io/releases/v1.3.0). This view would show the full list of changes (e.g. all merged PRs) for that release.
  3. Change GitHub release links in index view to point to the new view at https://atom.io/releases/[version]
  4. Add a link to view the release on GitHub to the new view at https://atom.io/releases/[version]

This way, https://atom.io/releases would be a summary of notable changes, and users would click on a particular release to get more detail about the changes.

What do you think?

Maybe even just a click-reveal for the details?

I was thinking a view specifically so it can be linked to easily, but click-to-reveal would work too so long as we can link to them. :smile:
