Version 5.0.0 December 11, 2023
Expanse v5 comes with big performance wins, bug fixes, and a lot of other goodies under the hood! We’ve prioritized performance in this update and have made significant progress in reducing page load time. For instance, we’ve improved our Largest Contentful Paint (LCP) score by 1.63 seconds in the Expanse demo store. Behind the scenes, we’ve restructured the underlying architecture with Liquid Theme Components, bringing a number of developer experience improvements, better conventions and more modular code, as well as easier theme updates going forward.
Added
- New theme architecture built on Liquid Theme Components
- Fine-grained control over how JS loads for the interactive components via Islands architecture. Load JS as it’s needed, load the rest when the page becomes idle.
- Support for JavaScript Import Maps
Changed
- Refactored code into Theme Components found inside the snippets folder
- Refactored JS from single bundles like
theme.jsandvendor.jsinto individual ES Modules - Refactored to use Custom Elements better JS structure, section lifecycle handling, and JS event management
- Refactored Quick Shop and Quick Add components for better loading and functionality
Removed
- Global theme setting for animating page transitions have been removed
- Lazyload images section setting removed from slideshow sections
- Removed a combined 100 lines of repeated swatch logic from recommended products and hotspots sections
Fixes and other improvements
- Various improvements made to improve page load time
- Improved our LCP score by 1.63s
- Image zoom works for right aligned product galleries
- Escape key closes Search when Predictive search is disabled
- Centered logo is correctly positioned on mobile header
- Color scheme textures are working correctly
- Fixed missing translation error for recipient form
- Product thumbnails are visible when set to ‘Below media’
- Fixed issue with opacity for theme modals’ background-colour
- Heading shows correctly for Text columns with icons section
- Fixed issues with inventory status not showing correctly for variants and incorporated merchant feedback to improve the overall logic
