Skosmos 3.3 has been released!

https://github.com/NatLibFi/Skosmos/releases/tag/v3.3

This release continues to refine Skosmos 3. Based on an accessibility review (by @Eiskore / Avaava Oy), we have identified a list of accessibility issues. Many of them have already been addressed in this release: keyboard navigation has been improved throughout the UI, including custom displays such as the sidebar with the alphabetical index and hierarchical view. Keyboard focus indicators are now unified. Many issues with screen reader support have been addressed as well.

There are new custom content slots (headerbar, main-content) which allow easy customization via custom templates. Support for collation in languages such as Northern Sami and Icelandic has been improved on Chromium-based browsers, which only support a limited set of languages. Support for custom label overrides on the vocabulary home page was contributed by @jdfranel. Timestamps shown on concept pages and in vocabulary metadata are now timezone-aware and formatted according to the current locale (credit: @jdfranel). There are also some bug fixes, test suite improvements and dependency updates: Font Awesome, FormatJS and Vue i18n are managed via npm dependencies.

For an overview of the next planned steps in Skosmos development, see the Roadmap.
