# Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/),
and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).

## [1.7.0] - 2026-04-30

### Changed

- Stop eagerly writing detected CSS variable values during initialization. SlideVars now reads detected values to build the controls and writes inline custom properties only after user interaction, which improves behavior in hot-reloading development environments.

## [1.6.0] - 2026-03-28

### Changed

- replace all "control-group" with "control-container" in the CSS and HTML templates for better semantics and to allow more flexible styling. The class names for control groups are now "control-container control-container--slider", "control-container control-container--color-modern", and "control-container control-container--color-standard".

### Added

- Add option to group variables in the UI under custom headings. If a property in the config object contains nested properties instead of a `type`, it will be treated as a group heading and the nested properties will be rendered under it.

## [1.5.1] - 2026-02-10

### Changed

- Removed a log
- Control Panel closed on demo page by default.

## [1.5.0] - 2026-02-09

### Added

- Added a new `filterVariables` option to exclude variables with specific prefixes from auto-detection (e.g. `"--arc-"` or `["--arc-", "--other-"]`).
- Control groups now have type-specific class names: `control-group--slider`, `control-group--color-modern` (oklch etc.), and `control-group--color-standard` for styling.

### Changed

- Order the properties in the UI based on the order they are defined in the CSS.
- Modern color formats display in the color chip so they have more visible room.

## [1.4.0] - 2026-01-14

### Changed

- Values properly written back to the scope they came from.
- Added [modern color picker](https://github.com/argyleink/css-color-component/) for colors like oklch().
- Shows warning if no variables are found.
- Updated README to link to prior art and the third-party bookmarklet.
