Major Changes

0.3.2 (October 12, 2016)

• WebVR 1.1 API support (#1931)

0.3.1 (August 25, 2016)

• Fixed requiring A-Frame with Browserify from npm. (#1824)

0.3.0 (August 17, 2016)

0.3.0 improves performance, adds support for the WebVR 1.0 API, and adds tracked controllers (using experimental Gamepad APIs).

Major Changes

• WebVR 1.0 API support. (#1423)
• Default camera is now positioned at 0, 1.6, 0 rather than 0, 1.8, -4. In VR mode, the 1.6m height offset as defined by camera.userHeight is removed. (#1474, #1718)
• Components no longer serialize stringified data to the DOM for performance. Introduced debug mode and flush-to-DOM methods. (#1323)

• Removed deprecated declarative events, loader component, and <a-cube>. (29446e0)
• Abstract raycasting-related properties out of the cursor component into the raycaster component. (#1196)

• Added A-Frame Code of Conduct. (#954)
• Reduced webvr-polyfill BUFFER_SCALE to 1 / window.devicePixelRatio only for iOS versions under 10 as a workaround to a Webkit bug. This will cause decrease resolutions on iPhone VR mode temporarily. It can be overridden in window.WebVRConfig.BUFFER_SCALE, but will cause canvas sizing issues upon entering stereo causing people to have to rotate their phones back and forth. (#1803)

Deprecations

• Declarative Events deprecated in favor of ngokevin/aframe-event-set-component. (#1634)
• look-at component deprecated and moved to ngokevin/aframe-look-at-component. (#1447)

0.2.0 (March 25, 2016)

0.2.0 improves extensibility:

• Component API has been greatly enhanced with more lifecycle methods, schema options, and property types.
• Components can be applied to primitives (e.g., <a-box>).
• Custom GLSL shaders can be shared and registered to provide more visual effects.

Major Changes

• aframe-core merged with aframe. window.AFRAME exposes what aframe-core was exposing previously (e.g., AFRAME.registerComponent vs. AFRAME.aframeCore.registerComponent). (#368)
• <a-assets> must be declared within <a-scene>. (#910)
• <a-entity>.object3D is now a THREE.Group. Use <a-entity>.setObject3D API to add new 3D objects from components. (#847)
• Bumped three.js to r74 stable. (#1006)
• npm points to a prebuilt bundle of dist/aframe.js.
• Scene <canvas> elements are now appended to the scene by default rather than to the document body. The scene can specify which <canvas> to render to. (c0aa360)
• Primitives such as <a-sphere> directly extend <a-entity> rather than template them. They can be registered with AFRAME.registerPrimitive. (#883)
• <a-template> and HTML Imports logic have been removed. Use https://github.com/ngokevin/aframe-template-component in the meantime. (#883)
• <a-camera> no longer creates a cursor on its own. Do <a-camera><a-cursor></a-cursor></a-camera> instead. (#883)
• Default geometry depth, height, width property values changed from 2 to 1. (#1245)
• Default color of primitive elements such as <a-box> changed to #FFF to not interfere with textures. (#1245)

Deprecations

• <a-cube> deprecated in favor of <a-box>. (#883)

Enhancements

• Introduced shaders to extend the material component and to register custom GLSL shaders. (#861)
• Component property types. Property types define how a component property is parsed and stringified. Custom property types can be registered or defined inline with the property in the schema. Built-in property types include array, boolean, color, int, number, selector, selectorAll, string, vec2, vec3, vec4. (d35e56e)
• Single-property components. A component can define itself as consisting of only one property by specifying a type and/or a default value in the schema. (d35e56e)
• Asset management system that blocks scene render.
• Play/pause methods on entities and play/pause handlers on components. (9238861)
• Tick method on components to register a function called on each scene tick. (#823)
