Nice quality of life improvements.

We’re still working on them. There’s a lot to it and not something we want to rush. Having said that, they should be in next week’s build for you to test and find any rough edges. 😊

The forms will require PHP 8.1.0 or newer on your server to run.

I love the new Editor cog functions. Hiding labels etc. Better than I was expecting 🙂

Love seeing the progress on all the basics. It raises my hopes for the finished product, which were already high.

However, for some of us there’s still a huge issue you haven’t begun to address: usefulness for a content-based site. Typography is a mess. Lists are missing. Blog or any kind of content driver is missing. Moreover, we can’t really design without knowing how those things happen.

My sites grow dramatically over time, and that’s because of constant new content. I don’t want to be sitting in the designer all the time, selecting subcomponents one by one and “designing” them as I go. Title, subhead, summary, heading, content, embedded lists, pull quotes, images all should happen in some way that is organic within a page template that already had header/content/banner sections. Anything else makes for more work and more potential mistakes, particularly as you try to stay responsive.
