1. Bootstrap upgrade from 3 to 5
Distill's UI is now built using Bootstrap 5, a major upgrade from Bootstrap 3. This upgrade will help us build a better UI for Distill. Some of the changes you will notice are:
- Updated and more consistent UI for adding actions and conditions.
- Using searchable dropdowns instead of select boxes in most cases the list can be long.
This upgrade also paves the way for supporting dark mode in the near future.
2. Condition Builder V2
We have introduced a simpler and more powerful way to creating conditions. It now supports Deleted Text as one of the sources of data to evaluate conditions.
Some of the new operators in V2 are:
starts with and ends with
lenght is greater than and length is less than
doesn't match regular expression
The classic condition builder will be available as V1 and will continue to be supported. So, existing conditions will continue to work in the future.
To switch from classic (V1) to modern (V2) and vice versa, use version selector dropdown in the condition builder.
3. Updated Import and Export views
Import and Export have been updated to export JSON as a file and import JSON from a file. When importing monitors, the JSON content can be pasted in a textarea as well.
