Maturity levels

  • Stable: documented for production use; breaking changes only in a major version.
  • Experimental: usable in apps, but names and behaviour can change in a minor version before 1.0. Changes are listed in the changelog.
  • Internal candidate: exported because this site uses it; review before depending on it.
  • Compatibility alias: an older name kept working while documentation uses the new one.

Next

  1. Move Android Insider's and Smart Cleaner's hubs onto marketing.js, now that 0.0.1 is on npm.
  2. Move the Android system bars (status bar, gesture and 3-button navigation) that each app's screens draw into the library.
  3. Stabilize the marketing elements' names and tokens once two apps use them.
  4. Review the documentation layout elements for public use.
