I've released Davaux's 0.9.0, which is still in Alpha testing. It's now available on NPM. I am still working on the documentation and I need to move them to a new host, as the Codeberg pages are getting really slow lately. They are currently at:

https://davaux.codeberg.page/docs/

https://davaux.codeberg.page/ui-docs/

The /docs site has been rebuilt using Davaux UI as well. Here are some of the changes in this release of Davaux:

Performance

• Module cache - nearly 3x faster route resolution in production

• Lazy cookie parsing - cookies are only parsed when actually accessed

• Optimized RequestContext and regex matching across the router

• Production build improvements: CSS minification, caching/compression/ETag config

Framework

• Declarative partial updates: ctx.defer() for streaming content into a page after initial render

• Reactive components: a lighter-weight alternative to islands for client interactivity, usable anywhere in src/, not just src/islands/

• Route groups and isolated layouts

• OML cache config: opt-in (include) or opt-out (exclude) caching for OML pages, replacing the old always-on cache

• Multi-file upload support; islands can now be registered from plugins

• Correctness fixes: redirect() now returns a proper Response; ctx.status correctly propagates to the actual HTTP response; fields/fieldsAll renamed to field/fields

New packages

• @davaux/mail: zero-dependency SMTP client with templating

• @davaux/storage: zero-dependency S3-compatible object storage client

• @davaux/rich-text: ProseMirror-backed rich text editor, reading/writing OML natively

• @davaux/tabler-icons: Tabler icon set as a Davaux component

@davaux/ui — major expansion

• New StyleProps system for shorthand inline style props, CSS logical properties, a motion system, z-index scale, and accessibility passes (focus rings, reduced motion)

• ~15 new components: AppShell, DataView/DataTable, DatePicker/DateInput, ColorPicker, Combobox, TagsInput, MultiSelect, Spotlight, Spoiler, RelativeTime, NavMenu, Toast, ScrollArea, and more

• Extensive bug fixes across nearly every existing component (Select, Checkbox, Switch, Badge, Table, Modal, Tabs, and others)

• className renamed to class throughout, in line with Davaux's JSX conventions
