Shiraz plugin has just got a new update!

The major change is the addition of new QUICK TABLE (e.g. automatically create table from csv data)

A comprehensive documentation was also added, see Shiraz Tutorial / Quick Table on https://kookma.github.io/TW-Shiraz

Shiraz is a small framework of stylesheets, templates and macros to create stylish contents in Tiddlywiki. Shiraz has customized elements like alerts, cards, panels, images, static tables, dynamic tables, quick tables, badges, texts, etc. Shiraz uses some modified CSS classes from Bootstrap 4.3.1.

Code and demo
It is highly recommended to backup your data before trying any new plugin! Do it before installing shiraz.
Quick tables in Shiraz depends on new features in Tiddlywiki 5.2.0 (https://tiddlywiki.com/prerelease)

If you like it star it at https://github.com/kookma/TW-Shiraz


Best wishes
Mohammad

Congrats @Mohammad on this significant upgrade to a super-powerful plugin!  The documentation is exemplary (already was, in fact; now it's beyond compare), and the functionality it brings to styling of tiddlers -especially tables, now so easy to manipulate- is something i'm going to be using heavily for sure.

Before i upgrade tho, i have to ask: Is Shiraz 2.4.0 fully compatible with TW 5.1.23, notwithstanding the dependency of "Quick tables" on TW 5.2.0?  If we invoke some such dependent feature by accident, does it "fail gracefully," or is there a risk of data loss? 

(would also like to know -Quick tables feature being SO  very compelling- when TW 5.2 beta might be available to us non-dev users... But if you can't speak to that one, i understand :-)

Hi Walt,

Thank you for your kind words and great to hear you like Shiraz!

The only dependency on TW 5.2.0 is the quick table (e.g. table-csv) so you can use all features with 5.1.23 except quick table.
If you use table-csv  in 5.1.23, it will create the table, but the sort function will not work as expected. 
There is no risk of data loss.

By the way, as TW always recommends, take a full backup before using new tools.

Best wishes
Mohammad
