Package Updates

[vilbht]

This Atom package is so useful! But it needs manual updating when Tachyons get updates right?. Is there a better way to keep up with the new releases?

Thanks

thanks @vilav for the comment, and yeah, its all manually updated right now. I've tried thinking of a way to keep pace with all the changes happening in Tachyons, but the author is iterating hard. I'll try to bring things up to date in the next few days though. And if you have any ideas for automating, I'm very happy to hear them or would love a PR of new components and/or class hints :)

@calweb we could look into writing a script that generates the format you have for listing components. Probably not that tough to at least automate that part.

This is an awesome package @calweb (and thanks for bringing this to our attention @vilav)! I've just opened up a PR in the Tachyons docs repo linked above that whips up an initial pass at dynamically generating the cson output based on the contents of the components directory. That way we can just run a script when the components are added since @mrmrs is on 🔥 with those lately.

I'm not sure how to handle the snippet templating yet, so that is something we will have to noodle on. We might end up needing to add some metadata to the json front matter in order to know where to apply it. But, at least it's a start : )

@mrmrs @johnotander you guys really rock!! Thanks for making it easier to update this package. I'll definitely take a look at what you've done and try to help with the snippet templating.

Really a big fan of tachyons so far; never have i been so productive building ui!

@mrmrs @johnotander @calweb hey y'all! any plans on taking this forward?

[calweb]

@vilav sorry slow to respond, but i will have some updates in the next few days. Thanks for using this package and the ping.
