2.0.0

MeshingKit 2.0 Release Notes

API Improvements

New Template System

• Introduced a new protocol-based gradient template system
• Added support for custom gradient templates through the CustomGradientTemplate struct
• Maintained backward compatibility with existing size-specific methods

Simplified API Access

• Added clean dot syntax for accessing predefined templates:

  // Before
  MeshingKit.gradientSize3(template: .auroraBorealis)
  
  // Now
  MeshingKit.gradient(template: .size3(.auroraBorealis))

New Namespace Organization

• Introduced PredefinedTemplate for better type safety and organization
• Templates are now categorized by size (size2, size3, size4)

Custom Template Support

• Added ability to create custom gradient templates:

  let customTemplate = CustomGradientTemplate(name: "Custom", size: 4, ...)
  MeshingKit.gradient(template: customTemplate)

Other Improvements

• Better documentation with more examples
• Improved type safety across the API
• Maintained all existing gradient templates and animations

Migration Guide

Existing code using size-specific methods (gradientSize2, gradientSize3, gradientSize4) will continue to work. To adopt the new API style, update your template references to use the new dot syntax.
