Blog: weekly format refresh, Metal default, new Build Cloud console#5074
Merged
Conversation
Adds the May 29 weekly release post that introduces the shorter, TL;DR-focused weekly format and announces two website-facing changes the post depends on: - ios.metal is the default for new iOS builds (PR #5065). - Every Dashboard link on the website now points at the new /console/ UI instead of /secure/. The legacy /secure/ console stays online for the time being. URL updates in this commit: - docs/website/hugo.toml: developers-menu and top-nav Dashboard URLs. - docs/website/content/build-server.md: primary URL + legacy fallback. - docs/website/content/site-map.md: split Dashboard entry into Console and Legacy. - docs/website/layouts/_default/pricing.html: free-tier Sign Up CTA. Historical blog posts that mention /secure/ are left untouched.

Replaces the nine per-PR bullets with three themed bullets so the release cycle ships fewer, broader posts and does not bleed into next week's index: - Developer workflow (Sat): on-device debugging + JUnit. - Platform APIs in the core (Mon): WiFi + OIDC + WebAuthn + Share + AI / LLM / Speech / ChatView. - Build-time codegen (Wed): annotation framework + router + ORM + mapping + binding + Immich baseline + SVG / Lottie transcoders. Total: four posts (intro + three follow-ups). Back half of the week intentionally left clear.

Edits requested on the PR:
- "I" voice replaced with "we" throughout.
- The "I trailed this" line rephrased in simpler language ("we
decided to push this back by one week").
- Build-hint snippet uses ios.metal=false, matching what shows up
in the settings app (not the codename1.arg. prefix).
- The phrase "legacy console" is now the link to the old
/secure/index.html URL.
- "we want it to retire empty" replaced with a cleaner sentence.
- "Those are historical text..." sentence removed.
- "That keeps this release cycle to four posts..." sentence
removed from the upcoming-attractions section.
- The grab-bag bullet no longer names the specific Flutter source
app; the porting exercise is described generically instead.

docs/website/content/blog/metal-default-new-build-cloud-and-a-new-format.md(new) — the weekly post.docs/website/hugo.toml— both menu entries (developers > Dashboardand the top-navDashboard) point at/console/.docs/website/content/build-server.md— primary link is/console/, with the/secure/URL preserved as the legacy fallback.docs/website/content/site-map.md—Dashboard (Secure)split intoDashboard (Console)andDashboard (Legacy).docs/website/layouts/_default/pricing.html— free-tier Sign Up CTA →/console/.Notes
JavaSEPort.java(simulator Help → Build Server menu) andCN1BuildMojo.java(hyperlog warning) still hard-code/secure/. Those are application code rather than website links, so they are not in this PR; flip them in a follow-up if/when we want the simulator and the Maven plugin to point at/console/too./secure/signup?level=...) are a different surface and are left untouched.Test plan
docs/websitesucceeds./console/index.htmlin the rendered nav./console/index.html./secure/index.htmlstill works in the browser (we are not deprecating it yet).
