Update Universal Theme Documentation Site to include Release Number for Components

jim schmitz Public · Aug 21 2024

Idea Summary
The Universal Theme web site documentation at https://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/r/apex_pm/ut/getting-started , for the Components page, can we include the Release Number a component was first introduced and the release number where there was significant update to component? This info may be good on other parts of that site.

Use Case
It would be nice to easily see when components have been addded and updated so developers can review code. I know this is in the release notes, but the Universal Theme page is a nice repository of everything. Also, we send our functional users to that site to see if there is some component they would like us to use in future designs. It gives them a good idea the capabilities of APEX

Preferred Solution
Update the web site whenever a new version of Apex is released

We reviewed this idea carefully, and while it was interesting, we concluded that it is unlikely to make its way into APEX in the foreseeable future.

    @jim schmitz , UT app is updated with each release, and has a picker for each UT version in the upper right corner.

    With each version, only supported components and references are shown. 
    It's also the same with the icons, colors etc.

    Yes, but you have to go backwards into UT for each component and find them. I just want to be on the current release, and look at “Carousel”, for example,  and see what version it was first introduced, and what version(s) were changes made to it.  Seems like a simple thing to add to documentation?

    The team discussed this idea again today and we decided that this has diminishing return over time, and that it's better to keep a good and clear change log.
