Minor release

v2.14.0 - Select all matching records, override destructive actions, automatic required option, and more

Avo is a beautiful Rails based administration system. In comparison to competitors, it wins in it's visual style immediately and that's not taking into account all of its features.

It's simple to use, has excellent documentation, and anything that is not covered is helped super quickly and efficiently by Adrian.

Highly recommended!

There hasn't been a lot of chatter on the Discord this week. It could be that we haven't pushed too many bugs to production in the last release 😅 or it's just vacation time everywhere.

Speaking of vacations, I'm going to take some time off next week. I'll still have my laptop with me, so write if you run into issues.
