3.6.2 is out, it's a tiny patch release and we invite you to run `bundle update`
|
|
if you want to avoid possible build problems with:
|
|
|
|
* some UTF-8 and UTF-16 encoded files,
|
|
* fully numeric layout names (we convert those to string for you now).
|
|
|
|
Other changes include updates to our documentation, like this [complete
|
|
video series by Giraffe Academy](/tutorials/video-walkthroughs/) aimed at
|
|
complete beginners. A big thanks to Mike for this.
|
|
|
|
And if you're wondering what happened to version 3.6.1, it was just our new
|
|
release maintainer getting familiar with the release process. 😄
|
|
|
|
We try to release patch releases as quickly as possible and we're already
|
|
working on the next minor version 3.7.0 that will allow you to store all your
|
|
collections in a single directory. Stay tuned.
|
|
|
|
Theme developers are invited to test the brand new
|
|
[`jekyll-remote-theme`](https://github.com/benbalter/jekyll-remote-theme) plugin
|
|
and give their feedback to @benbalter. This plugin allows you to use any
|
|
GitHub hosted theme as a remote theme!
|
|
|
|
Once again, many thanks to our contributors who helped make this release possible:
|
|
ashmaroli, bellvat, Frank Taillandier, i-give-up, Jan Piotrowski, Maximiliano
|
|
Kotvinsky, Oliver Steele and Pat Hawks. For some it was their [first
|
|
contribution to open-source]({% link

|

|
|
|
|
As it's been nine years this week that Tom Preston-Werner started this project,
|
|
I also wanna seize this opportunity to thank [all of the 732 contributors](https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll/graphs/contributors) who
|
|
helped make it possible for Jekyll to power millions of websites around the world
|
|
today.
|
|
|
|
Happy Birthday Jekyll! 🎂
