First off, fantastic package! I was wondering if there was an official changelog. There have been a couple of major (client dependency edits) and breaking (dotnet datasource) changes in recent versions that would be nice to review before updating.
Hello Jan, thanks for the welcome and the quick reply! I suppose those closed issues wouldn't have helped my case. I'll be more specific:
The GetEditorDataItems method in IDotNetDataSource now requires the contextId param. This was a breaking change and took some investigating to pin down why my implementations suddenly stopped working (sidenote: this documentation might need changing https://github.com/uComponents/nuPickers/wiki/Data-Source-DotNet ).
Looking at just those closed issues, I also wouldn't have been informed on the recent nice fix for the embedded resources with client dependency bundling.
Hi Shola, thanks for pointing that out, that documentation does look like it needs updating... The releases page on github: https://github.com/uComponents/nuPickers/releases is probably the best place for the change log, TBH, I'm surprised the contextID change wasn't noted! Will try harder :)
Just a quick note that you can use the compare view on GitHub to view the exact changes between two releases, though you have to do a little digging first.
On the releases page you can see the tags for each release, and then you can use them in the URL for the compare page, e.g.: here's a diff between v1.4.1 and v1.5.0:
Thanks--yep, that's a pretty nifty option on github. The only issue is, things like "breaking changes" aren't exactly apparent when viewing diffs of that sort.
nuPickers Changelog?

Hi Shola and welcome to our :)
Not a changelog as such but a list of closed issues on GitHub https://github.com/uComponents/nuPickers/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aclosed - Will that do?

I think so far the most informative list of changes have been amidst the tweets here https://twitter.com/crumpled_jeavon
(today, there's already a pretty cool tweet in fact).

Hello Hendy, that sounds great. Again, I really appreciate the hard work applied to this package.

Chriztian,
Thanks--yep, that's a pretty nifty option on github. The only issue is, things like "breaking changes" aren't exactly apparent when viewing diffs of that sort.
