Remotestorage.js Versions Save

remoteStorage 2.0.0 is a mostly non-breaking update for app developers. It contains a few important bugfixes and a lot of enhancements. However, most of the work has been done under the hood, and on the development and documentation tools.

The source code has been ported to TypeScript, in order to facilitate safer and easier refactoring of the codebase. Thus, JS API documentation has been switched from JSDoc to TypeDoc, and the ReadTheDocs build environment had to be creatively adapted to support more modern node.js and TypeScript functionality. You can also access documentation for different versions there now, with the 2.0.0 docs being available under the "latest" tag.

remoteStorage 2.0.0 is an almost entirely non-breaking update for app developers (unless you still use bower to manage JS dependencies). It contains a few important bugfixes and some nice enhancements. But most of the work has been done under the hood, and on the development and documentation tools.

The source code has been ported to TypeScript, in order to facilitate safer and easier refactoring of the codebase. Thus, JS API documentation has been switched from JSDoc to TypeDoc, and the ReadTheDocs build environment had to be creatively adapted to support more modern node.js and TypeScript functionality.
