release

The much-anticipated Jekyll 3.0 has been released! Key changes:

Incremental regeneration (experimental, enable with --incremental )

) Liquid profiler (add --profile to a build or serve)

to a build or serve) Hook plugin API (no more monkey-patching!)

Dependencies reduced from 14 to 8, none contain C extensions. We’re hoping to reduce this even more in the future.

Changed version support: no support for Ruby 1.9.3, added basic JRuby support. Better Windows support.

Extension-less URLs

site.collections is an array of collections, thus: collection[0] becomes collection.label collection[1] becomes collection

is an array of collections, thus: Default highlighter is now Rouge instead of Pygments

Lots of performance improvements

… and lots more!

We also added a Code of Conduct to encourage a happier, nicer community where contributions and discussion is protected from negative behaviour.

A huge shout-out to the amazing Jekyll Core Team members Jordon Bedwell, Alfred Xing, and Matt Rogers for all their hard work in making Jekyll 3 the best release yet.

We also added Jekyll Talk, managed solely by Jordon, which offers a modern forum experience for Jekyllers across the globe to talk and learn about Jekyll!

As always, check out the full history for more details.
