This is a new-ish weekly post where we go over our repository's open source activity from the past week. New-ish because we think this type of a post is a better form-factor than the previous iteration. We'll be recapping last week, starting from Monday October 29th to Sunday November 4th.
Features
We now automatically give open-source contributors their DEV contributor badge! This is a chron job that runs periodically. Thanks to @fredplante for the contribution! Click here for their pull request.
We added another Liquid tag that lets you embed a CodeSandbox. Credits to @ben for this one. Pull request and details here.
You can now create series for posts! We've technically had this supported for a while, but it previously had to be set by an admin. Check out Ben's changelog post below for all the details. You can also view all the technical notes in the associated pull request.
Bug Fixes
Thanks to @florinionce for fixing a bug with our podcast player. You should now be able to close the player properly. Pull request here
We previously had an issue where the integrations page in settings would occasionally timeout. This would mostly happen when someone had a lot of repos on their account. We now load the request asynchronously, and the widget is now a Preact component. Pull request by me here
Thanks again to @fredplante for fixing this next error! We now properly send a 404 response when you try to visit an unmatched setting tab. Find their pull request here
Honorable mention to Dependabot for handling three security vulnerabilities through our dependencies!
