Web Awesome follows [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/). Breaking changes in components with the <wa-badge variant="brand">Stable</wa-badge> badge will not be accepted until the next major version. As such, all contributions must consider the project's roadmap and take this into consideration. Features that are deemed no longer necessary will be deprecated but not removed.

Components with the <wa-badge variant="warning">Experimental</wa-badge> badge should not be used in production. They are made available as release candidates for development and testing purposes. As such, changes to experimental components will not be subject to semantic versioning.

## 3.0.0-beta.1

We're excited to share the first beta release of Web Awesome, which includes some breaking changes that make the library significantly more intuitive and consistent!

The list looks extensive, but that's because we've tried to be thorough in documenting every change. We expect most users will only encounter a few of these during their upgrade. The majority are simple attribute renames (like clearable becoming with-clear) and component simplifications that actually reduce the amount of code you need to write.

**If you're a Web Awesome alpha user, please read through these release notes carefully!**

Many of these changes and improvements were the direct result of feedback from users like you! These changes represent our commitment to getting the fundamentals right as we move from alpha into a more stable beta release.

- `<wa-dropdown>` was reworked and simplified to not use menu, menu item, menu label; use `<wa-dropdown-item>` instead

- Dropped `violet` and `teal`, instead using `purple` and `cyan` (this is not just a renaming, the colors have been adjusted too).
- Fixed a bug in `<wa-switch>` that caused tooltips to work incorrectly when toggling the switch

### Design Tokens {data-no-outline}

- Added `--wa-color-[hue]` tokens with the "core" color of each scale, regardless of which tint it lives on.
  You can find them in the first column of each color palette.

- Added `hint` attribute and corresponding slot.

#### `<wa-select>`

- Added the `tag` part (and associated exported parts) to `<wa-select>` to allow targeting the tag that shows when more than the max number of visible items have been selected

- Fixed an incorrect CSS value in the expand icon
- Fixed a bug that prevented the description from being read by screen readers

#### `<wa-option>`

- `label` attribute to override the generated label (useful for rich content)
- `defaultLabel` property
- Dropped `getTextLabel()` method (if you need dynamic labels, just set the `label` attribute dynamically)
- Dropped `base` part for easier styling. CSS can now be applied directly to the element itself.

#### `<wa-menu-item>`

- `label` attribute to override the generated label (useful for rich content)
- `defaultLabel` property
- Dropped `getTextLabel()` method (if you need dynamic labels, just set the `label` attribute dynamically)

#### `<wa-card>`

- Fixed a bug where child elements did not have correct rounding when headers and footers were absent.
- Re-introduced `--border-color` so that the card itself can have a different border color than its inner borders.
- Fixed a bug that prevented slots from showing automatically without `with-` attributes

#### `<wa-tab>`

- Fixed a bug that caused `document.createElement('wa-tab')` to fail (which also meant it could not be used in VueJS and other frameworks)

### Docs {data-no-outline}

- Added an orientation example to the native radio docs
- Fixed a number of broken event listeners throughout the docs

## 3.0.0-alpha.10

- 🚨 BREAKING: updated all components to use native events instead of `wa-` prefixed events. This will allow components to work more like native elements in your code, frameworks, third-party plugins, etc. To update your code, simply remove the prefix from your event listeners for the following events.
  - `wa-input` => `input`
  - `wa-change` => `change`
  - `wa-blur` => `blur` (this event will no longer bubble, use `focusout` for a bubbling version)
  - `wa-focus` => `focus` (this event will no longer bubble, use `focusin` for a bubbling version)
- Added `.wa-callout` utility class
- Added the `orientation` attribute to `<wa-radio-group>` to support vertical and horizontal radio items
- Added docs for visual tests
- Added docs on how to cherry-pick native styles
- Changed the behavior of the `variant` and `size` attributes so that nested components that support these attributes but do not have them set inherit the values set on their ancestors. Additionally:
  - Added `size` attribute to `<wa-dropdown>`, `<wa-button-group>`, `<wa-menu>`, `<wa-rating>`, `<wa-card>`
  - Added `variant` attribute to `<wa-button-group>`
- Fixed a bug in `<wa-tab-group>` that prevented nested tab groups from working properly
- Fixed slot names for `show-password-icon` and `hide-password-icon` in `<wa-input>` to more intuitively represent their functions
- Fixed a bug in `<wa-textarea>` that caused empty controls to submit a value if the initial value was deleted a certain way
- Fixed a bug in `<input>`, `<textarea>`, and `<select>` styles that prevented full-width controls from using 100% width when wrapped in a `<label>`
- Fixed a bug in `<select>` styles that caused the caret to block interactions and prevented the caret from rendering unless wrapped in a `<label>`
- Fixed a bug in `<wa-checkbox>` that caused hints to render inline with the label
