If you missed the CappCon2016, you can find the story of this amazing day here! Videos and slides have been released.

In a bit of sad news for the Cappuccino Community, Aparajita Fishman has left the Cappuccino project to take on a role at Apple. Thanks you for all your great work on Cappuccino and we hope you’ll show them how it’s done over at Apple! More information here.

Taking a step back to look at the last 6 months, we can see lots of improvements and news. To pick just a few, CPView has been optimized, while CPAnimationContext and CPViewAnimator have been added to the framework. As always, minor bugs have been fixed. The full list is below.

We are getting close to a new release Cappuccino 0.9.10, which will probably be released in October 2016!
