[2.0.0] - 2020-11-29

moment, which was used to format dates, was replaced by date-fns, essentially to reduce the size of render only browser bundled packages.

You must update dateFormat everywhere you used it following date-fns format.

Also, util.moment not available no more. If you used it, alternatives are:

  • import moment in your node project and inject moment yourself in util

  • or prepare dates upstream from generating texts (and avoid moment in templates)

Added

  • issue templates on GitHub

  • standard guides: README.md, DEVELOPER_GUIDE.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, COMMUNITY.md etc.

  • Observable HQ integration doc

  • doc on synonyms explaining best approach to generate all alternatives

Fixed

Changed

  • render only browser packages are smaller (about 1/3 gain).

  • date-fns is now used to format dates instead of moment.

  • util.moment not available no more.

  • n2words is packaged more finely to reduce package size.
