v1.4.0

Highlights

Maintenance release for the documentation site and configuration: task checkboxes now persist across reloads, Part 2 documents the re-insert confirmation prompt, and the docs pipeline and configs shed dead weight.

Docs site fixes

• Task list checkboxes now persist across reloads: the script selected the surrounding label instead of the checkbox input, so states were saved as "undefined" and never restored
• Part 2 documents the drop-confirmation prompt (EN/JA): re-inserting sample data after the schema change asks Drop and recreate this collection? [y/N] — answer y, or run python insert_sample_data.py --yes
• The language switcher derives the GitHub Pages project base from the script URL instead of a hardcoded repository name, so renames and forks keep working

Leaner configs

• Removed the runtime Font Awesome CSS/JS loads (the docs use only build-time mkdocs-material SVG icons), along with docs/overrides and the custom_dir setting
• Removed no-op theme features (content.code.annotation, i18n) and five unused markdown extensions; the built pages were verified identical before/after
• CI and the Pages deploy now install only the three pinned MkDocs packages (dropped unused mkdocs-glightbox and redundant babel / mkdocs-material-extensions)

Pipeline and docs accuracy

• The Pages deploy builds with --strict, so anything CI would reject is never deployed either
• Instructor troubleshooting: container checks use docker compose ps (the documented milvus-standalone name never matched), and a new section covers recovering a lost setup/instructor/.env after password rotation
• The preparation docs no longer mention marshmallow (pymilvus 2.6 no longer installs it)
• DEFAULT_COLLECTION_NAME is now products instead of the Building Blocks leftover knowledge_base (every documented path still sets a unique COLLECTION_NAME explicitly)
