Minor release

v2.16.0 - Skip show view, advanced fields on actions, create button on has_one association

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!

Hey Ruby friends,

It's been a long two weeks since our last release. We've been hard at work building new features in Avo.

🎸 Features

  1. Made sure model is set on actions. This enables developers to use the trix and belongs_to fields in actions.

  2. Skip show view out in beta. You may now choose to only have the Edit view and skip Show.

  3. Sidebar items accept data attributes
    Docs

  4. Add create button on has one association

🐛 Bug Fixes

  • ensure the right resource is used in resource_component
  • read-only trix field

Easy PRs

There are 7 good first issues ready to be picked up in the repo.

Next up

We're working on adding a sidebar to the resource Show and Edit views. This will enable you to add fields that don't really belong in long horizontal formats.
I have to pick up and finish the native fields PR, and there are quite a few community contributions that are very close to the finish line like custom policies and action policy support.
