  1. v1.2.1 Improved Latest

    Prev/next nav & changelog timeline

    #Docs #Changelog

    Two quality-of-life upgrades to navigation.

    • Improved docs with automatic prev/next links at the foot of every page, derived from the flat sidebar order
    • Improved the changelog into a vertical, dated timeline with version pills and tag chips
    • Fixed the changelog RSS to carry the change type and tags as categories

    Small touches, smoother reading.

  2. v1.2.0 Changed

    Tailwind v4 & token-based theming

    #Theming #Build

    Beacon now runs on Tailwind v4 with a fully token-driven theme.

    • Changed theming to a single @theme block — recolor the whole site from --color-brand
    • Changed the build to use the @tailwindcss/vite plugin (faster cold builds)
    • Improved the .prose typography scale for long-form docs
    • Self-hosted Inter + JetBrains Mono via Fontsource — no Google Fonts request

    Upgrading from 1.1.x? Your content needs no changes; only global.css moved to the new @theme syntax.

  3. v1.1.2 Fixed

    TOC anchors & mobile polish

    #Docs #Accessibility

    A round of fixes to the docs reading experience.

    • Fixed “On this page” anchors being hidden behind the sticky header — added scroll-padding-top
    • Fixed the sidebar not scrolling independently on long pages
    • Fixed focus-visible rings being clipped on rounded nav items
    • Improved tap targets on mobile for the search button
  4. v1.1.0 Added

    Built-in docs search

    #Search #Docs

    Press / anywhere to open an instant, client-side search across every doc — no API keys, no external services.

    • A static search index generated at build time
    • Keyboard-driven modal (/ to open, esc to close)
    • Ranked results by title, then description and group

    It works the moment npm run build finishes, on any static host.

  5. v1.0.0 Added

    Beacon 1.0 — first light

    #Docs #Changelog #RSS

    The first public release of Beacon: a light, branded docs and changelog starter built on Astro 5.

    • MDX docs with an auto-built, grouped sidebar
    • A dated, tagged changelog feed
    • RSS out of the box for release notes
    • One-token brand recoloring via --color-brand

    Thanks for being here at the start.
