Greetings, community!
We are excited to announce a few improvements to your SDK and Motoko experience this week! Please note that you can always find these notes as well at: https://sdk.dfinity.org/developers-guide/sdk-release-notes.html.
- You can now start the Motoko language services using
dfx ide
. - Better support for IDL canister arguments:
- Support for unicode escape, e.g.
\u{10ffff}\0a
- Number can be either decimal or hex with
0x
prefix. Can insert_
in between digits (e.g. 1_000_000). - Short-hand: omit null for variant; omit label for record;
- Support for unicode escape, e.g.
- Oneway awaits. Previously, oneway shared functions could not await/try/throw from within their bodies.
- NEW colored logo! Try on a dark background for maximum pizzazz.
