Release baseline
Match this guide to the build shown in Learning Studio.
Use the release label in Learning Studio to identify the app build you’re using. The help center and app can be deployed separately.
Documentation baseline
Section titled “Documentation baseline”The current authoring, interaction, and motion refresh was checked against app v0.25.6 “Kite”, dated 2026-11-05 in the application source. The top bar displays your running app’s version, code name, and date. The footer records the KB’s last content update in UTC, Pacific, Eastern, and Central time, with daylight-saving offsets applied for that date.
Kite authoring and interaction refresh
Section titled “Kite authoring and interaction refresh”- Workspace appearance and the editor tour explain the current palettes and inspector controls.
- Image hotspots includes floating cards and the small-image fallback.
- Reflections and choice scales explain private practice and temporary responses.
- Motion previews and connected separators help authors check transitions and reduced-motion behavior.
Robin 0.25.0 field guide update
Section titled “Robin 0.25.0 field guide update”- Learning Design redesign: Each workspace tab is organized into panels with tinted bands, and the gaps list groups related gaps together. See Use the Learning Design workspace.
- Side-by-side blocks: Drag a block to the edge of another block to place them side by side in columns. See Page and block layout.
- Steadier canvas: The block toolbar stays fully visible, and a drag that drifts off the list still drops. Deleting a page clears its built link on the Blueprint tab.
Puffin 0.24.0 field guide update
Section titled “Puffin 0.24.0 field guide update”- Learning Design workspace: Plan & review opens a full-screen workspace with Blueprint, Goals & objectives, and Alignment tabs, a coverage summary and gaps chip in its header, and links such as
?design=goals. Back to Learning Design returns you after you jump to the canvas. See Use the Learning Design workspace. - Framework levels: Classify objectives with Bloom’s Revised (process and knowledge grid) or Webb’s Depth of Knowledge, use Suggest level, read the ABCD wording checks, set question levels, and see each framework’s distribution. See Classify objectives with framework levels.
- Block objective links: In the inspector, choose Same as page, Choose, or Off for a block’s objectives. Blocks count as teaching or practice; practice-mode quiz questions count as practice, shown as Practiced, not assessed in coverage. Reset to page in Alignment restores page objectives. See Link blocks to objectives.
- Contrast alerts: Course settings show each color pair’s ratio and minimum, the inspector flags a block’s failing text color with Use a readable text color, and Review lists low-contrast warnings. See Check text contrast.
- AI Assist on selected text: The popup opens for mouse, double-click, and keyboard selections, and closes with Esc, ×, a click outside, a collapsed selection, typing, or Use/Discard. See Selected text.
- Canvas moves: Drag any block by its grip handle in the left gutter, or move it with the keyboard; the selected block shows one selection outline. See Drag blocks on the canvas.
- Blueprint: The plan, build review, and check report now live on the Blueprint tab, with Use plan, Approve and build, and Add pages to the course. See Plan before you build.
Osprey 0.23.0 field guide update
Section titled “Osprey 0.23.0 field guide update”- Patterns & layouts gallery (Browse patterns & layouts) replaces listing every starter pattern inside Insert block; includes 2 download cards and 3 download cards row layouts.
- Empty column targets accept pointer drag by the block grip or Move selected block here for the selected block.
- Delete… skips the confirmation dialog only for untouched starter blocks; authored content, attachments, style changes, and Objectives blocks still confirm.
- Export / Export package and Import package document full native
.nxgen.zipcourse packages with saved-snapshot export, import preview, 32.0 MiB transport limits, same-request import retry, Undo import (archive), and honest standalone practice-only quiz playback limits.
Documentation maintenance
Section titled “Documentation maintenance”Coverage discovery checks new features and UI screens against the field guide. Missing task guides, source mappings, and screenshot scenes are added automatically after validation. New dedicated guides appear under Feature guides.
Articles and screenshots track source dependencies. On trusted main-branch changes, the refresh workflow rewrites affected articles from mapped source evidence and captures affected UI scenes against an isolated demonstration fixture. Generated updates must pass source, asset, build, and browser checks before publishing. Failures retain the previous deployment and diagnostics. Automated capture checks are recorded separately from human visual review.
Screenshots contain fictional workshop content; the AI suggestion is illustrative. Capture never calls paid models. Automatic article rewriting uses a separate server-only documentation credential. A successful KB deployment does not establish that the application was redeployed.
