We've just cut a new release for Bootstrap 3, RC2. It's a big release as lots has changed, but that should all be for the better. Thanks everyone who's given feedback and submitted pull requests thus far—we're getting super close! | ||
|
||
|
||
## Key changes from RC1 | ||
|
||
Without listing all the minor changes (there have been over 500 commits since RC1!), here's a quick overview of the changes. | ||
|
||
* **Docs changes:** | ||
* The Customizer is back! Still needs some work, but functionality has been rewritten and will be improved as we head to final release. | ||
* Added new mention to our [browser compatibility docs](http://getbootstrap.com/getting-started/#browsers) to highlight the workaround for Internet Explorer 10 in Windows Phone 8 not picking up media queries. [See #9171.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/9171) | ||
* Added new section to the Getting Started page for documenting [third party and addon compatibility](http://getbootstrap.com/getting-started/#third-parties) issues. [See #9175.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/9175) | ||
* Added [new Accessibility section](http://getbootstrap.com/getting-started/#accessibility), lots of new aria and and role attributes, and more for improved 508 and WCAG compliancy. [See #9186.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/9186) Also improved used of more semantic HTML5 elements in docs per [#9332](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/9332), [#9347](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/9347), and [#9352](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/9352). | ||
* Added HTML validation tests, and made any existing failures pass. [See #9396.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/9396) | ||
|
||
* **Global CSS changes:** | ||
* Update vertical and horizontal gradients to make start and end color parameters come first, then start and end positions. [Fixes #9049.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/9049) | ||
* Make `.pull-right` and `.pull-left` classes use `!important` to avoid needing overrides due to specificity (like in navbar, button groups, etc). [See #8697.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/8697) | ||
* Lots of variable additions to components. | ||
* Updated gradients to not include `background-color` for improved use of `rgba()` colors within mixins. [See #8877](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/8877) | ||
|
||
* **Grid system:** | ||
* Overhauled grid system to include four tiers instead of the original three of RC1. We now have `.col-xs` (phones), `.col-sm` (tablets), `.col-md` (desktops), and `.col-lg` (large desktops). Responsive utilities have been updated to match these new tiers as well. [See relevant commit](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/commit/a2b9988eb908e5b95fb253aac7fde0fbd61c375e). | ||
* `.row`s only have negative left and right margins if they sit within a `.container`. This resolves the horizontal scrollbar issue for folks with full page containers (restoring the full behavior of the old fluid container from 2.x). [See #8959.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/8959) | ||
* Grid now includes offset, push, and pull classes for each break point [See #8974.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/8974) | ||
* Updated mixins to include ability to specify gutter width as a second parameter. [See #8935.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/8935) | ||
|
||
* **Buttons:** | ||
* Buttons and inputs, and their large counterparts, are now a bit shorter. | ||
* New default button styles and higher contrast on `:hover` and `:active` states. [Fixes #8786.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/8786) | ||
* New classes for size modifier classes—instead of `.btn-mini`, `.btn-small`, or `.btn-large`, we now have `.btn-xs`, `.btn-sm`, and `.btn-lg`. [See #9056.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/9056) | ||
* New button group sizing classes: just add `.btn-group-xs`, `.btn-group-sm`, or `.btn-group-lg` to any `.btn-group` and you're good to go. [See #9295.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/9295) | ||
|
||
* **Forms:** | ||
* Similar to the new button classes, we have new input size classes: `.input-sm` and `.input-lg`. [See #9056.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/9056) | ||
* Input focus states now generated via variable and mixin. Use the `@input-focus-border` variable and `.form-control-focus` mixin to generate a custom `border-color` and `box-shadow`. [See commit .](http://) * Size modifier classes for large and small components—including buttons, form inputs, pagination, and wells—have all been standardized to use `-sm` or `-lg`. [See #9056.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/9056) | ||
* Inline forms now require the use of `.form-group`, [per #9382](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/9382), to properly align and size all (native and custom) form controls. This also helps make form markup more consistent and flexible (just swap a class), so woohoo! | ||
* Added `.static-form-control` to account for static, placeholder text in horizontal form layouts. [Fixes #8150.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/8150) | ||
* New input group sizing classes: just add `.input-group-sm` or `.input-group-lg` to any `.input-group` and you're good to go. [See #9295.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/9295) | ||
|
||
* **Dropped accordion for updated panel.** | ||
* We've removed the accordion and instead chosen to extend the panel component to provide the same functionality. [See #9404](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/9404). | ||
|
||
* **Navbar:** | ||
* Overhauled navbar to always be responsive and mobile first. | ||
* Navbars now require a `.navbar-header` to wrap up brand and toggle. | ||
* `.nav-collapse` has been renamed to `.navbar-collapse` and automatically hits a max-height and will overflow to keep your nav content in the same viewport. | ||
* [See details in #9403.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/9403) | ||
* Navbar's no longer use `.pull-left` or `.pull-right`, but rather `.navbar-left` and `.navbar-right`. This avoids issues with specificity due to chaining classes and enables easier styling. | ||
|
||
|
||
* **Miscellaneous component changes:** | ||
* Alerts that are to be dismissed now require `.alert-dismissable` to properly pad the alert and align the close button. [See #9310](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/9310). | ||
* Responsive utilities are now mixin-able thanks to [#9211](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/9211). | ||
* Dropped `.alert-block` for a simpler `.alert`. | ||
* Linked panel titles now inherit their color. Fixes [#9061](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/9061). | ||
* List groups in panels no longer require `.list-group-flush`. | ||
* Labels now require `.label-default` for the "default" gray option. [See #9123.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/9123) | ||
* Labels now collapse automatically (not in IE8) when empty. [See #9241.](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/9241) | ||
