Why

direction and three defects it exposed are unreleased. 0.1.2 is what is on npm, and this
brings the packages up to what main has actually contained for a while.

What is in the package

  • direction — every motion can be told which way to go.
    direction={["counterClockwise", "insideOut"]}. A list, because a row-major snake has
    two independent axes and its four corners are four distinct drawings — one reverse flag
    could reach two of them. ORDER_DIRECTION_AXES[order] is the table a control reads.
  • OrderFn gained an optional fifth parameter, dir?. An existing four-argument order
    function still assigns cleanly and keeps meaning what it meant.
  • applyCssVars now returns boolean — whether the host still holds the cells these
    options call for. Only matters to a caller that reads it.

Behaviour changes

  • The CSS renderer falls back to SVG for a motion it cannot express, rather than leaving
    the element empty. columns moves a highlight down a column and a per-dot animation-delay
    cannot do that; asking for CSS anyway used to yield a blank field. Now you get the
    motion, painted as SVG, and handle.options.renderer reports svg — which is what is
    actually on screen. cssGap() still says why.
  • A direction change re-ranks an already-mounted CSS field. It used to update the state
    and change nothing you could see.
  • The stylesheet no longer emits @keyframes for a motion CSS cannot render. The rule it
    emitted for columns animated nothing — spike is a gaussian centred on the cycle seam,
    so sampling at 0 and 1 gives full brightness at both ends: a static, fully-lit field that
    every consumer shipped for a motion the renderer had refused to draw.

Special things to note

  • Minor, not major. Nothing a working consumer does today breaks. The two behaviour
    changes are additive-or-better: a blank field becomes a rendered motion, and a silently
    stale field becomes an up-to-date one.
  • The changelog is split for this release — what is in the package, what behaviour
    changed
    , site — because an npm reader should not wade through "the site is now Astro +
    React islands" to learn whether their code breaks. The per-PR entries stay: they are the
    reasoning; the summary is the contract.
  • Verified before publishing: three packages at 0.2.0, direction present in
    core/dist/index.d.ts, publish order core → react → cli, and react's workspace:*
    dependency is left for pnpm to rewrite at publish.
  • 249 tests, oxlint 0, registry ok.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added animation direction control, including updated CSS animation ordering when the direction changes.
  • Improvements
    • Animations that CSS cannot render now fall back to SVG.
    • Unsupported CSS keyframes are no longer output.
  • Release
    • Published version 0.2.0 with updated release notes and a refreshed project website.

A MINOR bump, not a major: nothing a working consumer does today breaks. `OrderFn` gained
an optional fifth parameter, so an existing four-argument order function still assigns
cleanly and keeps meaning what it meant. `applyCssVars` now returns a boolean, which only
matters to a caller that reads it.

Two BEHAVIOURS changed in ways worth stating rather than burying:

- The CSS renderer falls back to SVG for a motion it cannot express, instead of leaving the
  element empty. `columns` moves a highlight down a column and a per-dot `animation-delay`
  cannot do that; asking for CSS anyway used to yield a blank field. `handle.options.renderer`
  now reports `svg` — which is what is actually on screen — and `cssGap()` still says why.
- A direction change re-ranks an already-mounted CSS field. It used to update the state and
  change nothing you could see.

The changelog is split for this release: what is IN THE PACKAGE, what BEHAVIOUR CHANGED, and
a short SITE section, because an npm reader should not have to wade through "the site is now
Astro + React islands" to find out whether their code breaks. The per-PR entries stay as
they are — they are the reasoning, and the summary is the contract.

249 tests, oxlint 0, registry ok.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The release updates package versions to 0.2.0 and adds English and Chinese changelog entries. The entries describe API and rendering changes, plus the site deployment. A playground test also removes an unused declaration.

  • observed — Modified behavior in CHANGELOG.md: Documents direction as an axis-token list constrained by ORDER_DIRECTION_AXES, OrderFn’s optional fifth dir parameter, and applyCssVars returning whether the host still holds the requested cells.
  • observed — Modified behavior in CHANGELOG.md: Documents CSS-renderer fallback to SVG for unsupported motions, in-place re-ranking of mounted CSS fields on direction changes, and exclusion of unsupported motions from generated keyframes.
  • observed — Modified behavior in CHANGELOG.md: Adds the site release note describing the Astro + React islands deployment on Cloudflare Pages and listing site-only work.

Both files still compare v0.1.0...HEAD, which includes the 0.1.1, 0.1.2, and 0.2.0 release history. Change both references to v0.2.0.
