Library Versioning

Marketplaces bring a host a new challenges to Code Component libraries.

  • Knowing what version of the library you have, and whether there exists a newer version

  • Updating to that newer version

  • Reverting to an older version, if there is a breaking change that affects your project

  • Installing a special dev build of a library, for special features

    • Or to support developer integration testing

Goals

We aim to resolve all of these challenges through some careful engineering and best practices.

  • Current Library Version will always be displayed in the Library name

  • SCM allows you to install the current release, or any prior release

  • Updates are never automatic

  • Notification of updates is done ( msot likely ) via email list

Future

  • We may be able to audit your workspaces through the Webflow API- to check the versions of exsiting components

    • Webflow's Data API currently does not surface Code Component install data
