Steps block:
- Three layouts: vertical (stacked with connector line), horizontal
(side-by-side, connector above), timeline (alternating cards on centre
line)
- Three marker styles: number (decimal/padded/roman/alpha), icon, dot
- Layout-aware marker sizing - bare 40px icon for horizontal, tinted
circle for vertical/timeline
- Staggered IntersectionObserver entrance animation
- Code span rendering in step body text
- Added to startup-landing-page template as a horizontal how-it-works
section
Hugo v0.161 dropped the standalone tailwindcss binary; @tailwindcss/cli
npm package is now the only accepted transformer, invoked via
`node --permission` (Node >= 22 required).
- Bump module.hugoVersion.min to 0.161.0 in modules/blox/hugo.yaml;
add comment explaining why security.node.permissions is left to
Hugo's built-in defaults
- Bump hugo_version / HUGO_VERSION / devcontainer image tag to 0.161.0
across all 9 templates (hugoblox.yaml, netlify.toml, devcontainer.json)
- Bump devcontainer base image Node 20 → 22 and default Hugo version
- Add scripts/check-template-deps.mjs to assert every template declares
tailwindcss + @tailwindcss/cli; wire as pnpm check:template-deps
- Harden CI: new audit-template-deps job gates all build jobs; add
`require.resolve('@tailwindcss/cli/package.json')` check after each
pnpm install to catch the exact "binary is not a Node.js script" failure
Dev tools
- Add HBX Dev HUD (floating button + panel) with live log viewer
- Add get-build-id helper to dedupe logs per build (during `hugo server` refreshes)
Callouts
- Implement Obsidian-compatible callouts (15+ types) with shared renderer
- Add i18n title translations (en, es, fr) for all callout types
- Deprecate `callout` shortcode with suppressible warning; keep working
- Migrate starters to Markdown callouts (>[!TYPE]) and update docs
Logging
- Centralize logging in partial `functions/logger` with info/warn/error levels
- Use fmt.Warnidf for suppressible warnings (consistent IDs)
- Only show info in Dev HUD/JSON (no longer use warnf for info logging); warn/error still printed in CLI
- Include source metadata and build ID on each entry
Blocks – Collection
- Add support for `content.filters.kinds`
- Add `content.filters.tags` (array) alongside existing `filters.tag` (string)
Build/Tailwind/JS
- Fix missing Tailwind v4 styles in Hugo render: include preact-built assets, extract classes from JSX/TSX to `@sources`
- Load Preact client per block, publish source maps in dev; on-demand Alpine
CI
- Re-implement fast fails with panicOnWarning now that info logging as warnf removed
- Fix package splitter change detection: strip trailing slashes; collapse paths to starter roots
Starters/Docs
- Restructure courses under `courses/hugo-blox/`
- Update menus and landing pages
- Replace deprecated callout usage in content and docs
- Replace missing hero icon `download` with `arrow-down-tray` in academic-cv guide
Icons
- Improve icon resolver: default pack inference, better fallback, and precise missing-icon warnings (with page ref)
- Centralize logger: warnf/errorf for normal pages; HTML comments for adapters
- Add dev console logs and export structured logs to /hbx-debug.json
- Remove --panicOnWarning from dev scripts; builds no longer fail on warnings
- Fix prior lint/format issues across scripts and templates
Add standalone option to update starter templates with latest module
commits using Go pseudo-versions instead of creating new release tags.
- New functions for commit info extraction and pseudo-version formatting
- Updates go.mod files with v0.0.0-YYYYMMDDHHMMSS-abcdefabcdef format
- Updates Hugo versions in hugoblox.yaml, netlify.toml, and deploy.yml
- Uses deploy.yml workflow filename (GitHub Pages convention)
- Supports --dry-run for preview and --yes for execution
- Perfect for GitHub UI workflows and development environments
Validated with:
`poetry run python scripts/release_modules.py --update-starters-to-commits --dry-run --log-level INFO`
- Update view-starter-dev.sh to default to academic-cv if no starter specified
- Update view-starter-prod.sh to default to academic-cv if no starter specified
- Update usage documentation to show starter name as optional parameter
- Maintain backward compatibility with existing usage patterns
Refactored from legacy layouts/partials/blox/* system to:
- blox/<block-id>/block.html source structure
- Hugo module mounts to layouts/partials/hbx/blocks/<block-id>/block.html
- Resolver-based lookup
- Support for data-driven pages and client islands
- Upgrade MathJax from v2 to v3
- Updated Highlight, Leaflet, Fancybox, Mermaid, FontAwesome
- Fixed multilingual icon paths in Web App Manifest
- View Demo script now binds to all network I/F to enable testing on
other physical devices like smart phones
BREAKING CHANGES:
Removed `plugins_css` from `params.toml`.
Override `custom.scss` to add custom styling.
