I didn’t think I’d see this day, now I can even have a vline for the day on my plot with the axis just working :heart_eyes:

Welcome news! Eager to try out the datetime axis changes. Much improved organization of documentation, which will help increase adoption. Thank you!

The attribute validation looks great! Appreciate your effort.

incredible!!!

The unit support sounds amazing. No more plotting different series with different units into the same axes!

Great news! Though I’m confused, wasn’t Makie 0.21 released back in February?

See:

Something new happened now? Or is just that the official announcement was delayed until this moment?

that was when we created a github release to be able to have a separate set of reference images for the preparation of the actual release, the actual release was only recently

Another set of really good changes, great job! I really appreciate these release blogposts :heart:

The date support is a really nice feature !

Thank you!
The validation and in-place documentation of plot attributes is brilliant!

Thanks a lot! Now I can finally delete all my workarounds for date plotting :slight_smile:
