v0.2.0

[0.2.0] — 2026-06-02

v0.2.0 introduces a stronger composition system for building brutalist Angular UIs. The new layout grammar — Surface, Section, Stack, Cluster, and Split — lets you compose full card layouts, multi-column pages, and recipe UIs entirely from library primitives with consistent token-driven spacing, border, shadow, and typography.

Added

Composition system

• NbSurface — base brutalist panel directive. Token-driven tone, radius, border, shadow, padding, size, layout, edge, clip, and typography inputs.
• NbSection — inner region primitive for Surface. Owns padding, divider side, divider style, layout (default / center / between), align, and flush.
• NbStack — vertical rhythm primitive. Gap, align, justify, and separator inputs.
• NbCluster — horizontal/wrapping rhythm primitive. Gap, padding, align, justify, wrap, and separator inputs.
• NbSplit — two-column main-and-aside primitive. Ratio, gap, padding, collapse (responsive breakpoint), align, and separator inputs.
• NbMediaFrame — framed media primitive with aspect ratio locking. Ratios: auto, 1/1, 3/4, 4/3, 3/2, 16/9, 21/9.
• NbText — inline and block text primitive.
• NbDisplay — large headline primitive.
• NbTitle, NbTypography — typography composition primitives.
• NbStat — statistic display primitive.
• NbRating — star rating primitive.
• NbProgress — progress bar primitive.
• NbStatusDot — status indicator primitive with size and radius inputs.
• NbCallout — inline callout/emphasis primitive.
• NbMediaItem — icon + label pair primitive.
• NbAvatar, NbAvatarGroup — avatar and avatar stack primitives.
• NbChip, NbChipGroup — tag/badge primitive with tone, padding, and group layout.
• NbIconButton — icon-only button primitive.
• NbSticker — decorative burst/shape primitive.
• NbHalftone — decorative halftone pattern primitive.
• NbSeparator — divider line primitive.

Recipes

• Travel Card — media, sticker, display, split, cluster composition recipe.
• Podcast Card — audio episode card composition recipe.
• Open to Work Card — professional profile card composition recipe.

Shared token vocabulary

• Unified NbBorderStrength, NbShadow, NbRadius, NbSpacing, NbPadding, NbToneToken across all composition primitives.
• NbTypographyFont — font role contract used by NbTypography and NbSurface.
• NbMediaFrameRatio — now includes '3/4' portrait ratio.

Breaking Changes (pre-publish, still 0.x)

• Class names: Component/Directive suffix dropped. NbCardComponent → NbCard, NbButtonDirective → NbButton, NbSelectComponent → NbSelect, NbAccordionComponent → NbAccordion, etc.
• defaultValue removed from <nb-accordion>: use [value]="..." for one-way initial value or [(value)] for two-way binding.
• defaultValue and defaultOpen removed from <nb-select>: use [value] / [(value)] and [open] / [(open)] respectively.
• NbSection border input renamed to divider: border="bottom" → divider="bottom". Separates the region-border concept from the outline-strength border input used everywhere else.

Internal

• Async code highlighting migrated to resource() (Angular 21 stable API).
• Router navigation state in navbar, docs-shell, and TOC migrated to toSignal().
• Portfolio typewriter animation and greeting cycle migrated to toObservable + switchMap.
• Portfolio journey map sync migrated to toObservable + subscribe.
• Event handlers renamed to reflect actions rather than triggering events.

v0.1.2

[0.1.2] — 2026-05-23

Changed

• npm package description rewritten to lead with "neo-brutalist Angular UI library" and include "brutalist Angular components" and ng add @ng-brutalism/ui (T1/T2 keyword alignment).
• npm keywords: added ngbrutalism, ng-add, schematics; removed generic ui and redundant tailwind.

Patch motivation: @ng-brutalism/ui was absent from npm's search index even for exact-name queries. Publishing a new version fires the registry event that triggers the search crawler.

v0.1.1 — Tailwind source scan fix

Fixed Tailwind v4 source detection for packaged component utility classes in consumer apps.
