We are excited to release the Abyssale version 1.7 - Pear edition! 🍐

What's new:

These past months have been a rollercoaster for our team, a lot of new users have joined us this is why we had to scale our infrastructure to make Abyssale future-proof!

Based on your feedback our focus for this release was mainly around improving the overall user experience but also some updates to the Template Builder capabilities.

Goodbye, projects... Hello, folders! - The entire project view has evolved into a more friendly approach: a folder architecture.

  • Drag & select: Being able to drag & select multiple elements is by far the most used features on any computers... You can now achieve the same action on Abyssale!
  • Folder hierarchy: You can now create folders into folders, into folders, into ... (you get the idea).
  • Move folders: You'd like to move a folder somewhere else? We got your back!

You can also generate banners and leave them on the primary folder (root).

Abyssale users feedback -  Our roadmap is based on your needs! This is why we've decided to give you a better view of what will come next, but also give you a way to drive our roadmap by submitting your ideas on what should come next!

Head straight to our new roadmap portal to see what's coming next and vote for what you think should be our priority!

Template builder -  We've added new capabilities to our components!

Creating templates and using our API should be as easy as possible this is why we've made multiple additions to our existing components.

Text:

  • Custom fonts support: You can now upload your fonts into the template builder
  • Text background: You can now add a background to your text! This background expends as you add more content.
  • Text skew: You'd like to rotate your text to give it a more "Need for Speed" effect? It is now possible!
  • Text outline: You can now add some outlines to your text!

Shapes:

  • Shape rotations: You can now rotate any shapes giving you better control over what you'd like to design.
  • Border-radius: That square is too "squarish"? Not anymore! Enable border-radius on rectangular shapes.
  • Outline: As with the text component, outlines has been added to shapes as well.
  • SVG patterns: You can add some patterns to a shape background. 13 patterns have been added to this update.
