Unicorn

It's been a long time coming, but the Unicorn repository has officially been transferred to https://django-commons.org! 🎉

This move ensures that Unicorn will continue to get updates going forward and should allow other collaborators to work on the project easier than before.

The new repo is at https://github.com/django-commons/django-unicorn (although https://github.com/adamghill/django-unicorn will redirect for a little while).

Lots of fixes and some features are planned for upcoming releases, plus maybe a few other surprises! 🦄

Version 0.66.1 of django-unicorn, an interactive component library for #Django, is now out. 🎉🦄

@amoateng@mastodon.social is out there fixing all the bugs!

@amoateng@mastodon.social has put together an initial roadmap to get Unicorn to a stable 1.0 release. 🤩

We'd love your feedback! What would be most useful for Unicorn going forward? How can we set it up for improved support and adoption in the #Django ecosystem?

@henrik@eliitin-some.fi The website is in a state of transition, so it will be fixed eventually when time permits.

Unicorn is thrilled to be a part of this session of @djangonaut@indieweb.social!

The Djangonauts are going to learn about building a third-party #OSS library for #Django, fix bugs, add features, and just generally help out. 🦄

We're thrilled to be a part of this initiative! 🚀

The first version, 0.1.0 🎉, of the Unicorn Playground has just been released. 🦄🛝

It lets devs try out a Unicorn component without setting up a new Django app or installing Unicorn.

Two options:
1. Create a component script and use `pipx` to run it (no virtual environment needed!)
2. Create a virtual environment and use the CLI

See more details about the project in the README.
