v1.0.0 Beta 2

This release contains a number of bug fixes for the syndication endpoint, and a number of smaller fixes to the frontend code. Here are the highlights:

• Use a shared secret for your Netlify webhook: Wheres before you would include your server’s access token in the URL to notify (and update it after it had expired), you can now use a shared secret instead. Set a WEBHOOK_SECRET environment variable for your Indiekit server, and use the same value for ‘JWS secret token’ on Netlify.
• Customise character length for posts syndicated to Mastodon: This was previously hard coded to 500, but this value can now be altered using the characterLimit option. See the plug-in documentation.
• Use asynchronous post template: Some content store plug-ins would error if you tried to return an asynchronous post template function. These are now officially supported.
• Debugging: Using the -d/--debug flag on indiekit serve was not working. This has now been fixed.
• Edit post slug: A regression in the last release meant it was not possible to add a custom slug when creating a new post from the web interface. This has now been fixed.

💟 Indiekit is supported by its community. This release was sponsored by @roobottom, @localazy and @sentience.
