We are releasing 0.0.4, which includes some fixes and a new feature:

Summary

• Introduced a Jinja2 engine for backend template rendering
• Introduced console_log signal
• Fixed hash based routing for SPA applications
• Optimized run_javascript(js) to be a bit faster
• Fixed macOS arm64 builds
• CI/CD

Jinja2

We ported Jinja2 to Godot for dynamic HTML page generation from GDScript. It supports passing GDScript variables to templates, and other things you would expect from Jinja2, like: include, import, macros, if/for, extending blocks, etc.

What can you do with it? Read more about it here.

Console log

Javascript console output now has a signal:

$WebView.connect("console_log", _on_console_log)

func _on_console_log(level, message, line_number, sourceID):
    print("log: ", message)

CI/CD

We converted our silly collection of Bash files into a proper ci/cd Docker based pipeline, running on an Asus PN51 mini-PC, that produces release/debug builds for all platforms. This allows us to more quickly test features, and pack releases.
