Minor release

v2.29.0 - Search result path and better mount point discovery

Avo has allowed us to develop and release apps rapidly even with very few developers working on them. We can focus our efforts on domain logic and custom design where it really matters. Every other Rails CMS is difficult to style or scale or add custom fields, but Avo has been a dream throughout. It's been a game-changer for us.

Vilnius Ruby Meetup on April 6th

Next week on April 6th, I'll be in Vilnius to speak about how to build Rails apps faster with Avo, so if you're in the area, please don't be shy; I'd love to shake a few hands and have a few beers together.
I'm also open to feedback before the meetup, so if you'd like me to approach a particular area about Avo, please let me know.

What would be a fantastic Avo live demo in 6 minutes?

We need your help with this. I'm getting more and more requests to demo Avo to developers and teams, and I'm not sure what would be the best demo app to build. Preferably it should be a live demo and last 6-9 minutes.
So, if you have any ideas, send us a message or reply to this tweet.

That's about it for this week.

Thanks for being awesome✌️
