Custom Breakpoints

May 24th, 2023

Custom breakpoints code and UI in Makeswift

This past cycle at Makeswift we released custom breakpoints to make integrating existing sites even easier. Have a tailwind.config.js or existing media queries? No worries! Define breakpoints that match your existing configuration, and build your site in Makeswift on the viewports that make the most sense to you.

We rearranged the component tray to use rows so that you can quickly scan through it, and we added customizable icons (See #3 above) so that components are easier to recognize.



We also added a way to organize and search the component tray. When you use forward slashes in your component names, the tray will now render them into collapsible sections automatically (#2). And with the new search bar (#1), you can search through your components by folder and name.



All in all, we wanted to make sure that finding components happened at the speed of thought. For more detailed examples and a full list of icon options go to the updated component registration docs.

Under construction 🚧

We have been working on a site versioning system. It’s an upgrade on our publishing workflow that enables:

  • Site publishing: the ability to preview which pages, colors, and typographies have changed, select which changes you want to include in your next version, and publish in a single interaction

  • Publish rollbacks: the ability to see publish history and set your live site to a previous version

Preview of site publishing

The underlying core of this versioning system works under a feature flag. We will keep you updated as we finish the remaining task necessary for a public release.
