I titled last week’s update drag and drop party
because there were so many improvements on that front. But one critical piece was still missing: it was painful to drag components into locations that are difficult to visualize: top and bottom of slots, even more so for adjacent slots. Bálint “balintbrews” Kléri brought one additional improvement:
Goal: make it possible to follow high-level progress by reading ~5 minutes/week. I hope this empowers more people to contribute when their unique skills can best be put to use!
JSX Theme Engine. Ben had gotten the foundations in place in week 10 and then brought basic Redux integration for live updates of the preview in week 11. We knew there were lots of loose ends, but we had no choice but to move on to higher priorities.

With DrupalCon Barcelona 2024 only two weeks later, the focus this week is on tying up loose ends. That already started last week, but of the milestone 0.1.0 priorities that product lead Lauri identified, 15 are still left after last week: we need to fix 1.5/day to get to zero.
Unfortunately, during the week, Lauri prioritized several more issues, so we ended this week with … 12 — only 3 fewer than we started with :/ That means we’ll need to land >2/day in the next week to get to zero. Fortunately, most of those twelve are already pretty far along.
