v3.0.0

Key Changes from v1.x/v2.x to v3.x 🚀

🔌 Removal of jQuery Support

jQuery is no longer supported in simplyCountdown to reduce dependencies and improve performance. This change ensures a more lightweight and modern library.

Note: You can still use simplyCountdown in your jQuery projects by using the vanilla JavaScript syntax instead of the jQuery-specific one:

• Old jQuery-compatible syntax: $('.some-countdowns').simplyCountdown(options)
• New vanilla JavaScript syntax: simplyCountdown('.some-countdowns', options)

⚡ Transition from Gulp to Vite

The build process has been migrated from Gulp to Vite. Vite offers faster builds, better development server capabilities, and improved support for modern JavaScript features.

📝 Migration from ES6 JavaScript to TypeScript

The source code has been rewritten in TypeScript to enhance code quality, provide better type checking, and improve developer experience.

📚 New Documentation Website

A new documentation website has been launched to provide comprehensive guides, examples, and API references. This site aims to make it easier for developers to integrate and use simplyCountdown.

📦 Updated Distribution Files

The distribution files have been reorganized to include multiple module formats (ES, UMD, CommonJS) and themes. This change ensures compatibility with various development environments and build tools.

🏃‍♂️ Transition from npm to Bun

The package manager has been switched from npm to Bun for faster installs and improved performance. Bun offers a more efficient and modern package management experience.
