v3.16.0 - External link, copyable fields, and CMD+Return to submit forms

Happy New Year everyone,

We have a cool little release this start of year.

The big things:

• External links on records
• Copyable fields
• CMD+Return or CTRL+Return to submit forms
• Quality-of-life improvements
• Bugfixes

Full release notes below.

Revamped roadmap page

We'd like to communicate more throught his page and highlight the things we are working on currently.

Virtual things

We are doing some R&D to bring virtual resources and fields to Avo. You'd be able to create resources with custom columns in-memory backed by the database without having to add resource files and controllers and push code to production.
Let us know if this is something that you'd like to use.

Array driver

We'd like to bring more variety to how you structure your resources and make them more flexible for you.

So imagine a world where you can specify an array of things to be used in the listing of a resource. Wouldn't that be cool?
That array could come from an API, from a partial model query, or just plainly be manually written by you.

This is a very powerful API that can get us out of a lot of jams.

Happy New Year and thanks for being awesome!

Adrian and Paul ✌️
