Minor release

v2.8.0 - Stimulus JS integration, and tons of tiny features and bug fixes

Avo is legit. I like the licensing scheme. Open-source community or paid for power users. Very accessible. I love the quick release cycle. Very active! Docs and videos are helpful and very easy to read. Adrian and his group have done a superb job getting the word out in the Rails community. I look forward to seeing its success in the future. Excellent product!!!

Hello friends,

Biiiig release today. We took a break last week but we bring a lot of goodies in this release so let's dive in:

StimulusJS integration 🔥 You can now make your forms and CRUD interface a lot more dynamic.
Docs
Demo video

Custom blank text on select filter from @Paul-Bob. All filters have the empty_message option as a placeholder.
Docs

Added the ability to run an action silently. You can now run actions silently without responses. That's useful when you need to redirect from an action.
Docs

Access the resource and model in the action visibility block by @marschattha.
Docs

Allow singular name on has fields from @Paul-Bob. This makes the has_one, has_many, and other associations a bit more flexible to display.
Docs

Added link_to_resource to the external_image_field component by @teenu4 💪
Docs

Expose the global param in search. You now know what kind of search was performed. Global or one resource.
Docs

Refactored the logo partial to support more mobile-friendly use-cases.
Docs

Enabled ranges in all dashboard cards
Docs

Fixed a few bugs: Sidebar menu collapsed state; broken search for uncountable resources (fish); broken breadcrumbs when creating through associations, translation keys on resources and fields not displaying properly.

A lot of fixes under the hood to make the experience faster and more pleasant to work with.

Removed gendered language from our readme file with the help of @afomera. We also went through our docs pages to make sure they are inclusive.

We are incredibly grateful to our community for making this project even more awesome and inclusive.

We'd love to hear from you what have you've been building with Avo, so let us know on Discord or on Twitter ✌️
