New bbUI version 0.9.5: Opportunities on JavaScript interfaces for dynamic screen creation and manipulation.
In fact after the previous versions of bbUI, which have been more or less
very declarative and haven’t allowed until now, much manipulation via
JavaScript, the main focus in this new release has been around bug fixes, optimizations
and additional JavaScript® interfaces.
To know what kind of adjustments you may need to make to your JavaScript in
order to run v0.9.4, check
out the full change log . You can
also check
out the closed issues for details on bugs that have
been fixed and features that have been added.
