Docs for latest iced (and historical versions)?

[nathanleiby]

Hello!

I really appreciated your book - thank you for making it! It has helped me ramp up quickly on using Iced.

I was thinking of making a PR to clarify some differences I've noticed working in 0.12.1 of Iced, but I wasn't sure if that's something you'd like. I see that you are documenting 0.10.0 today:

(Currently, this tutorial is for version 0.10.0.)

First, are you interested in updating this tutorial to match the latest stable version of iced?

Second, are you interested in tracking multiple versions of iced, so that your current excellent docs for 0.10.x are maintained while you're able to also update to 0.12 and beyond? Similarly to how Rust crates lets you look at docs for prior versions (ex: https://docs.rs/crate/iced/0.10.0), you might do the same in your Github book. A possible approach is to use a branch for each version you want to document.

e.g.

• 0.10.x
• 0.12.x
• latest (perhaps this is just main)
• dev (if you want to start prepping for future versions before they ship)

I believe this would allow internal links to work as expected, since you are already using relative links like the below, they should stay within the branch

:blue_book: Back: [Table of contents](./../README.md)

--

All that said: I think a simple step forward is to push main to a 0.10.x branch to "save" it, and then start working to bring main up to date with 0.12.

If you are interested / would like any help, I'm happy to pitch in. If it's too much trouble, totally understood too. Thanks again for your excellent docs!

Cheers!

Thank you for your feedback and suggestions. It seems sensible to update the tutorial to the latest stable version, although I haven't had the opportunity to do so yet.

As per your suggestion, I've set up a branch named 0.10.x. It's linked to the main branch, ensuring that readers can access it for a complete tutorial. We can update the main branch to the latest version.

If you have any additional ideas or would like to make a pull request, please feel free to do so.

I've aimed to keep each part of the tutorial as simple as possible. If any part seems overly complex, we can consider breaking it down into smaller segments.

Have a nice day!
